ENGLAND have called up uncapped Bath centre Max Ojomoh as a replacement for the injured Ollie Lawrence ahead of Saturday’s Six Nations clash with Wales.

Lawrence is undergoing scans and seeing a specialist to assess the rupture to his left Achilles suffered during the first half of Sunday’s victory over Italy, with the damage likely to rule him out of the rest of the season.

His Bath team-mate Ojomoh, son of former England back row Steve, fills the hole created in Steve Borthwick’s 35-man squad squad that is preparing for the climax to the tournament in Cardiff.
