Ireland and Leinster captain Caelan Doris is out for up to six months after shoulder surgery.
“Caelan Doris had a procedure on Friday last week for a shoulder injury which will keep him out of action for between four to six months,” Leinster said in a statement on Monday.
Doris was injured on May 3 as Leinster lost to Northampton 37-34 in the Champions Cup semifinals.
The injury cost the No. 8 a place in what would have been his first British and Irish Lions squad. Doris was also favored to captain the Lions on the tour of Australia next month.
If 27-year-old Doris' recovery doesn't suffer setbacks, he could be available for Ireland's November tests. The Irish are scheduled to face New Zealand, Japan, Australia and world champion South Africa.
