Louis Lynagh has been named in Italy's training squad before their next Six Nations game with France, two days after the announcement that he will join Benetton at the end of this season.

Lynagh, son of former Australian flyhalf Michael, will leave Harlequins for the Italian club in July, and the 23-year-old has now been called up by head coach Gonzalo Quesada in his training squad announced on Wednesday.
