Liam Williams and Scott Baldwin have been ruled out of Wales’s Six Nations clash against France this weekend, the Welsh Rugby Union have announced.
Fullback Williams was hurt during the 29-17 victory over Italy at the weekend, having scored a superb solo try earlier in the match.
Hooker Baldwin is unavailable for Saturday’s encounter at the Stade de France because of a pectoral muscle issue.
Ospreys centre Keiran Williams has also been released from the squad following a groin injury, with hooker Sam Parry called up.
Head coach Warren Gatland will work with a 32-player training group in Nice.
Wales, who have won just once in this season’s Six Nations, have lost their past four fixtures against France, and will take on a team in buoyant mood following their 53-10 rout of England at Twickenham.
France could still snatch the title but Ireland are hot favourites to seal their first Grand Slam since 2018.
