France scrum-half Morgan Parra will miss the rest of the Six Nations after being ruled out for at least 10 weeks with a knee injury.
Parra, who plays for Clermont in the Top 14, suffered a tear to the posterior ligament in his right knee during France's 20-13 defeat to Wales at the Stade de France on Saturday.
The 26-year-old’s knee will be immobilised for four weeks, although he will not require surgery, and according to a Clermont statement "his return to competition won't be possible before 10 weeks".
Parra was sidelined with a similar injury on his left knee in 2013.
He will also miss Clermont's quarter-final match against Northampton in the European Champions Cup on April 4.
Parra damaged his knee in the first half in Paris, but kept playing until the 53rd minute when he was replaced by Sebastien Tillous-Borde.
