Leinster captain Caelan Doris is to have a shoulder procedure this week following an injury he picked up during their loss to Northampton Saints in the Investec Champions Cup semi-final on Saturday.

Doris will be further assessed following his shoulder procedure to see the extent of the damage. It was touted that the 27-year-old was a potential British and Irish Lions captain for this summer's tour of Australia alongside England's Maro Itoje. Should Doris be ruled out for the remainder of the season the case for the Saracens lock to become Lions captain strengthens.
