Latest on Danny Cipriani's injury sustained during Sundays encounter with Harlequins

Cipriani looks to be ruled out of action for anything up to three months after picking up a knee injury towards the end of the match on Sunday.

Director of rugby, Dai Young, was at first hesitant to rush to any judgement on the severity of the injury after the 24-21 defeat to Quins at the Ricoh Arena.

Today, however, it was confirmed that Cipriani has torn a medial ligament in his knee ruling him out of action for eight to twelve weeks.

Meaning the fly-half is unlikely to play again until the end of November or even into the December period.

Further casualties come in the form of Alex Rieder, who dislocated his shoulder in the game against Harlequins and expected to be out for about four months.

James Gaskell is likely to be sidelined for around 3-4 weeks with a hamstring injury incurred a couple of weeks ago, while Kearnan Myall is expected to be kept out by an ankle injury for around 8-10 weeks

Wasps’ Director of Rugby Dai Young said:

“It’s obviously not ideal to be without some of our key players, but it’s likely to happen to a number of clubs at some stage during the season.

"Unfortunately, we’ve picked up a few injuries early doors which is obviously going to stretch us, but we just need to deal with that."
