Paris - Stade Francais flyhalf Jules Plisson will miss the rest of the season after dislocating his left shoulder in the Top-14 game against Toulouse on Friday.
"Thanks for your support! IRM this morning, verdict: operation Wednesday, end of season... bottom of the barrel," the France international tweeted on his account.
Plisson did not say exactly how long he would be sidelined, but the injury casts grave doubts on his fitness for the Rugby World Cup which takes place in England from September 18-October 31.
