Scotland prop Zander Fagerson has been ruled out of the British and Irish Lions' tour to Australia with a calf injury.

His club, Glasgow Warriors, confirmed the news on X, adding: "We're all behind you, Z - we know you'll come back even stronger."

Fagerson, 29, last featured for Glasgow in early April and was absent as they lost Saturday's United Rugby Championship play-off semi-final to Leinster in Dublin.

Capped more than 70 times by Scotland, the tighthead toured South Africa with the Lions in 2021 and featured against Sigma Lions.

Andy Farrell's Lions face Australia in Tests on 19 July, 26 July and 2 August and will play seven other matches on tour.
