The Rugby Football Union have given their full backing to Eddie Jones, despite England’s disappointing Guinness Six Nations campaign.
England had to settle for a third placed finish after Saturday night’s 25-13 defeat by France, who were crowned Grand Slam champions in Paris.
But the RFU have attempted to quash any speculation about the future of Jones.
“Eddie Jones is building a new England team and against a clear strategy we are encouraged by the solid progress the team has made during this Six Nations,” an RFU spokesperson said.
“The RFU continues to fully support Eddie, the coaching team and players and we are excited about the summer tour and the progress to rebuild a winning England team.”
