LILLE, France : England have called up Bath flanker Sam Underhill to replace the injured Jack Willis in their World Cup squad, the RFU said on Sunday.
Willis was ruled out after injuring his neck in last week's win over Chile.
Underhill, who was one of England's star performers in the 2019 World Cup, was cut from coach Steve Borthwick's wider training squad in July.
He will join the squad in Lille on Sunday and then take part in the preparations for next weekend's quarter-final in Marseille.
