Everton's new stadium, Hill Dickinson in Liverpool, has been selected to host England's 11 July Nations Championship test against Fiji, moving the fixture from South Africa to a neutral English venue. The Rugby Football Union welcomes the chance to play away from Twickenham. Fiji Rugby Union requested the switch to maximise gate receipts and due to limited home venues. World Rugby, Six Nations and SANZAAR approved, on the condition the match is not held at Twickenham for integrity reasons. Negotiations are ongoing, but Hill Dickinson is the preferred venue over Wembley, the Emirates Stadium, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Manchester sites, which are booked. England's squad is dealing with injuries: second‑choice loosehead Fin Baxter will undergo foot surgery; Will Stuart is ruled out of the Six Nations with a ruptured Achilles; Asher Opoku‑Fordjour is unavailable after shoulder surgery. Jack Kenningham has been added to the training squad for the Spain trip, while Ben Curry remains at Sale for rehabilitation. This move marks one of the few England games away from Twickenham since 2019 and is part of efforts to support smaller unions financially.
