A broken rib will keep French centre Wesley Fofana’s out of the remainder of the Six Nations tournament.

The injury, which he picked up in the 27-6 loss to Wales, will see him sidelined for between three to four weeks and miss the matches against Scotland and Ireland.

The 26-year-old has been a key figure so far for France and is likely to be replaced by Toulouse's rising star Gaël Fickou.
