Saracens boosted by England stars

SARACENS have been strengthened by the return of England star Maro Itoje and No8 Billy Vunipola for Sunday’s clash with Sale Sharks.

Itoje has been away with England this month, competing in the Autumn Nations Series, but he returned to training this week and will start against Sale. Vunipola is also back in action after recovering from a knee injury that has kept him out since the start of this month.

He is joined in the side by full-back Max

Malins, who is back after his England exploits, and South Africa prop Vincent Koch, while Wales centre Nick Tomkins will be alongside him, too.
