Michele Rizzo has been called into the Italy squad for Saturday's RBS 6 Nations game against England at Twickenham.
Rizzo made his fourth start of the season in Leicester Tigers’ 50-17 bonus point victory over Bristol Rugby.
The loosehead prop won the last of his 22 international caps at London’s Olympic Park when Italy played Ireland in the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
If selected, he could face Tigers teammates Dan Cole, Mike Williams and Ben Youngs, who are among a 28-man England squad assembled in preparation for Sunday’s game. Click here for the England training squad.
