Exeter Chiefs players named in England elite rugby squad

Exeter Chiefs players Immanuel Feyi-Waboso and Henry Slade have been named in England’s elite player squad for the 2026/27 season. They are part of Steve Borthwick’s 25-player group, which includes new additions such as Alex Coles and Asher Opoku-Fordjour.

The selection follows England’s summer Nations Series, where the team secured victories against Fiji and Argentina. These contracts are part of the men’s professional game partnership aimed at player development for the national team.

Additionally, Exeter Chiefs have announced a partnership with Paignton-based sportswear brand VX3 for the 2026/27 season. VX3 will design and manufacture the club’s kits, replica kits, and a full range of leisurewear.
