World Rugby to decide on July Tests at 'end-April' - Laporte
World Rugby will not decide on whether Test matches in July will go ahead before the end of April, French rugby federation chief Bernard Laporte told AFP Thursday.
"For the moment, they'll take a decision end-April on the cancellation of the July tours," Laporte said, as the coronavirus pandemic continues to wreak havoc on sporting events.
World Rugby president Bill Beaumont had on Wednesday suggested postponing summer matches to the autumn, but Laporte insisted there was "nothing official".
France were due to travel to Argentina to play two Tests against Los Pumas, on July 4 in Salta and a week later in La Plata.
Countries from the northern hemisphere traditionally travel south in July to play a couple of international matches, while the opposite occurs in November.
