Rugby: Haouas, Willemse and Bouthier in the France group to prepare England

The three Montpellierers Mohamed Haouas, Paul Willemse and Anthony Bouthier were selected by the staff of the XV of France in the group of 31 players to prepare for the match against England on Saturday (5.45 p.m.).

Tested positive for Covid-19 two weeks ago, Montpellier pillar Mohamed Houas will be present to prepare for the trip to Twickenham on Saturday (5:45 p.m.) for the fourth day of the VI Nations Tournament. Unlike the three-quarter center Arthur Vincent, not selected because of symptoms still persistent.

Among the “covids”, the Toulouse scrum half and hooker Antoine Dupont and Julien Marchand, and the captain of the Blues Charles Ollivon (Toulon) are on the list unveiled by the French staff this Saturday afternoon. This is not the case for Uini Atonio (La Rochelle), replaced by the pillar of Castres (and trained in Montpellier) Wilfrid Hounkpatin.

Ntamack, Vakatawa and Returning Chat

Among the notable returns, and not least, we can note the presence of hooker Camille Chat (Racing 92), opener Romain Ntamack (Toulouse) and center Virimi Vakatawa (Racing 92), all injured since the start of the Tournament. .
