George Kruis injury update

George Kruis has undergone minor surgery on his ankle and is expected to return to action in a number of weeks.

“After consultation with George and England we are in all in agreement that it’s in the best interest of the player to undergo this minor procedure now with the majority of the season still ahead of us," said Mark McCall, Saracens Director of Rugby.

"George is on the road to recovery and we look forward to his return to action sooner rather than later.”
