Manu Tuilagi is ready to commit to making the 2023 World Cup by signing another contract extension at Sale.
The 30-year-old centre, whose power is unrivalled in English rugby, is set to take up an option to extend his stay in Manchester for one more season.
The decision means Eddie Jones can continue to build plans around Tuilagi, should he remain fit. He was injured in the autumn internationals when he went off after scoring against South Africa in what was only his third game for England since March 2020 because of injuries.
But Sale coach Alex Sanderson is hopeful the midfielder will be back this month.
