 Cipriani is the England Under 19 fly-half |
Wasps youngster Daniel Cipriani has been called up to join England's three-day Loughborough training camp. The fly-half, still only 18, has been joined at the session by Bath full-back Nick Abendanon and ex-Great Britain rugby league captain Andy Farrell.
"Daniel is one of many young players we are closely monitoring," said England coach Andy Robinson.
England's injury problems have eased slightly during the week, although they are still without a host of players.
A total of 12 players are not at Loughborough because they are continuing to rehabilitate or train at their clubs.
They are: Stuart Abbott (knee), Steve Borthwick (knee), Jon Clarke (ankle), Lawrence Dallaglio (ankle), Toby Flood (buttock), Michael Lipman (shoulder), James Simpson-Daniel (collarbone), Ben Skirving (knee), Mathew Tait (knee), Mark Van Gisbergen (jaw), Phil Vickery (back), Jonny Wilkinson (knee).
Ten players are attending for rehabilitation with the England medical team.
They are: Iain Balshaw (ankle), Mike Catt (calf), Olly Barkley (testicles), Harry Ellis (hamstring), Andy Goode (knee), Ryan Lamb (ankle), Josh Lewsey (hamstring), Mike Tindall (calf), Joe Worsley (hamstring), David Wilson (ankle).
