Ulster and Ireland lock Iain Henderson is set to miss the beginning of the new season after undergoing hip surgery, according to a report in The Irish Times.
Henderson, who captains Ulster, will be sidelined as a result of the procedure, though the precise length of his absence was not detailed in the available text.
The news is a significant blow for both Ulster and Ireland, with Henderson one of the province’s most experienced and influential forwards. His absence at the start of the campaign will test Ulster’s depth in the second row.
Further details on his expected return date and rehabilitation timeline are yet to be confirmed publicly.
