Williams injury doubt for Wales

Scarlets centre Johnny Williams is a doubt for Wales‘ autumn internationals after suffering another calf injury against Benetton.

The 25-year-old suffered the problem in the late stages of Saturday’s 34-23 loss in Italy.

Wales play New Zealand on November 5 before matches against Argentina, Georgia and Australia.

“It doesn’t look good as it stands, that’s the truth,” said Scarlets head coach Dwayne Peel. “I would say a good couple of weeks but I don’t know.”

Williams suffered a calf injury last season which ruled him out for a couple of months.

Wales coach Wayne Pivac has already lost Cardiff duo Liam Williams and Owen Lane and Dragons prop Leon Brown for the autumn series. There are also concerns over Cardiff ‘s Josh Navidi (neck) and Ospreys duo Alex Cuthbert (leg) and Gareth Anscombe (ribs).
