England winger Immanuel Feyi-Waboso will miss England’s two-Test series against Argentina having been handed a suspension following his sending off in the loss to a France XV at Twickenham on Saturday.
Feyi-Waboso could now be cut from England coach Steve Borthwick’s final squad which will be announced on Monday after his dismissal for catching Antoine Hastoy in the head with a swinging right arm in the first-half of the 26-24 loss.
His yellow card was upgraded on review to a 20-minute red card and a World Rugby disciplinary hearing confirmed it was a dangerous tackle and suspended Feyi-Waboso for both of England’s Tests in Argentina on July 5 and 12.
He will be available for the solitary Test against the United States on July 19 in Washington DC, if he completes World Rugby’s tackle school.

Saturday’s game was Feyi-Waboso’s first action since December, when he dislocated his shoulder, and he missed the Six Nations and a possible place in the British and Irish Lions squad.
Borthwick is relishing the “great challenge” of taking on Argentina following their statement victory over the British and Irish Lions.
Los Pumas celebrated a famous 28-24 win on Friday evening in Dublin as Andy Farrell’s Lions encountered a setback ahead of their series in Australia.

“Argentina are a passionate, committed team who score fast in transitions, and they did that,” said the head coach, referring to the Lions match.
“Argentina changed their strategy in a couple of areas and ultimately they got some opportunities and they took them really, really well, took them quickly.
“It’s a great challenge, one we’re looking forward to and it’s exciting. This group of players are really enthused by the chance to go to Argentina and play against a very good team.”

He gave opportunities to five uncapped players in the experimental fixture against France, with try-scorer Joe Carpenter, Seb Atkinson and Guy Pepper starting the match and Jack Kenningham and Oscar Beard coming on from the bench.
England led 24-12 going into the final 10 minutes at Allianz Stadium before conceding two converted tries to lose.
“I had a meeting earlier on this week and I was talking about the importance of disappointment and in Test rugby how one penalty conceded can cost you a Test match,” said Borthwick.
“Ultimately now a couple of people have gone into that arena and that’s happened: gone into the final 10 minutes in a winning position and made some mistakes that have cost us the game.
“While I wanted to win this game – every England supporter wants us to win this game – that’s the real learning development for us and our players and those young players.”
What’s next for the Lions?
Sky Sports will exclusively show the 2025 British and Irish Lions tour of Australia, with all three Tests against the Wallabies and six warm-up matches to be shown exclusively live.
