Zimbabwe and Northampton prop Cleopas Kundiona will be out of action for the foreseeable future after breaking his arm whilst on international duty at the weekend.

Northampton Saints and Zimbabwe prop Cleopas Kundiona faces a prolonged spell on the sidelines after breaking his arm during the international Test window. The 27-year-old tight-head sustained the injury in the first half of Zimbabwe's 43-7 defeat to Samoa in the World Rugby Nations Cup at Wakefield RL's DIY Kitchen's Stadium.
Kundiona's absence creates front-row concerns for Northampton Director of Rugby Phil Dowson, especially with fellow prop Trevor Davison still recovering from multiple knee surgeries. With Sonny Tonga'uiha and Ion Neculai as the remaining tight-head options, Saints may look to sign external cover.
