Some reports are claiming that it was an alcohol related issue and that the pair had been involved in some manner of altercation with each other.

Just last week Eddie Jones was singing the praises of Tuilagi, who had returned to the England camp after a long injury layoff.

“It’s nice to see him back training and back into it. He was a player who demolished New Zealand,” said Jones of the Leicester Tigers back.

“If his motivation and desire is right then he can be an outstanding player for us and add to the depth of the squad.”

Solomona spoke to Shark TV before heading off to training camp.
