Former Ponteland back-rower Callum Chick has been selected in the England squad for the team's summer fixtures.

England's summer squad had been set to play fixtures against Scotland, the United States and Canada over the coming weeks, however their opening game was cancelled due to a Covid outbreak in the Scotland camp.

Newcastle Falcons' Chick had been named in the England A starting squad for the game against Scotland before the match was called off on Sunday.

He has however again been named in the squad for the match against the USA this weekend, which is set to be a full international.

Chick has been named in the squad alongside three other Falcon's players - Trevor Davison, Adam Radwan and Jamie Blamire - with the quartet all potentially set to make their England debuts this weekend.

The match against the USA kicks off at 2pm at Twickenham, with the match being shown live free-to-air on Channel 4.
