Italy will remain in the Six Nations rugby team and will not be replaced by South Africa, as some English media had written. Six Nations Rugby, its six Federations and CVs “wish to specify that they are not engaging in discussions or developing any plans to add or replace a participating Federation”. They explain it in a note. “All energies are currently concentrated on strategic discussions regarding the international windows of July and November and the structure of the global season, to ensure a favorable outcome for the development of the Game.”
