Lions concern as Doris to undergo shoulder surgery

  • Leinster Rugby captain Caelan Doris will undergo a shoulder procedure this week after sustaining an injury during their Champions Cup semi-final last Saturday.
  • Doris injured his shoulder around the 56th minute in the 37-34 defeat to Northampton Saints, putting his participation in the upcoming British & Irish Lions tour in doubt.
  • The Lions, coached by Andy Farrell, will announce their squad on Thursday 8 May ahead of a 10-match tour to Australia and a test series against the Wallabies in July and August.
  • Leinster indicated that the severity of Doris's injury and how it might affect his availability over the summer will only become clear following the upcoming medical procedure.
  • Doris’s operation and further assessments will determine if he misses the remainder of Leinster's season and affects his likely inclusion and captaincy contention for the Lions tour.
