Rugby Union: Sean Lamont called into Scotland squad

Tim Visser's knee injury has prompted Scotland coach Vern Cotter to call Sean Lamont into his squad for the tour to Japan.

Sean Lamont has been called into the Scotland squad for the forthcoming tour to Japan as a replacement for the injured Tim Visser.

Visser picked up a knee injury during Harlequins' Challenge Cup final defeat to Montpellier last week, ruling him out of the Tests in Toyota (June 18) and Tokyo (June 25).

The inclusion of 104-times capped Glasgow Warriors wing Lamont follows the announcement this week that centre Matt Scott would replace Alex Dunbar (knee).

Vern Cotter's 27-man party head to Japan on June 11 after a training camp at Murrayfield.
