However, Ringrose will be sidelined for four to five months, depending on his rehabilitation.

The Leinster midfielder started in all three of Ireland's June tour fixtures – against the United Sates and Japan, scoring two tries and kicking one conversion.

This came at the end of a season in which Ringrose started 17 games for Leinster – nine in the Pro12 competition and eight in the European Champions Cup – scoring seven tries.
