New France coach Philippe Saint-Andre has called up former captain and lock Lionel Nallet as replacement for injured Romain Millo-Chluski in the Six Nations training squad for the opening match with Italy.

Nallet, 35 and capped 70 times, had been the only player from the starting XV in last year's World Cup final to be left out of Saint-Andre's initial squad, his first as coach since replacing Marc Lievremont.

However, Millo-Chluski - who was also part of the World Cup squad -suffered a dislocated right shoulder on Saturday in the Top 14 match with Lyon which will take at the very least four to five weeks to mend.

Toulouse, though, said on Monday that were he to need an operation then his season would be over.

The squad will come together at the Marcoussis training centre from January 23-25 while Saint-Andre will name his squad of 23 for the February 4 clash on January 25.
