The Rugby Football Union is braced for lost revenue of up to 50 million pounds over the next 18 months as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.

Chief executive Bill Sweeney says the closure of Twickenham during the pandemic will have a "significant impact on revenues".

The RFU has also provided a relief package of 7 million pounds to help struggling community clubs, mainly through loans.

Sweeney and other executives will also be taking a pay cut of more than 25%.
