Eddie Jones moves first in bid to secure services of English rugby wonder kid Henry Arundell

Eddie Jones has moved swiftly to tie up Henry Arundell, English rugby’s latest wonder kid, by naming him in his latest England training squad.

Arundell, 20-year old London Irish fullback, is eligible for Scotland, Wales and Cyprus as well as England. And since footage of his outrageous length of the field try against Toulon earlier this month went viral - there has been a scramble for his services.

Jones has moved fastest, including him in a 36-man squad which meets on Sunday for a three-day mini camp. That guarantees nothing, however, as he is not committed to one country or another until he becomes capped. England’s next cap match is the first Test against Australia in Perth on July 2.
