The Exeter wing is scheduled to have surgery next week which would see him miss the entire Six Nations but has yet to reach a final decision.
Rob Baxter, Exeter's director of rugby, says the 22-year-old has not yet ruled out having rehab work on the dislocated shoulder he suffered against Sale last month and delaying an operation until later in the year. A decision will need to be taken imminently, however, with Baxter suggesting that lengthy discussions between club and country have already delayed the recovery process.
"Basically he's got an operation date booked in, but until that operation happens he's still working very hard rehabbing his shoulder," revealed Baxter. "That will ultimately decide whether the operation happens or Manny feels he has got himself to a position where the rehab is going sufficiently well that the operation doesn't occur. It's booked to happen but he's not actually on the operating table yet."
