Saracens prop Mako Vunipola will receive his first England cap after head coach Stuart Lancaster included the 21-year-old in his 32-man squad for their four-Test series.

Uncapped Saracens prop Mako Vunipola has been included in Stuart Lancaster's 32-man England squad for their autumn internationals.

The 21-year-old has been given the nod by the national side and Ugo Monye, James Haskell and Tom Youngs have also been called up into the squad.

"It's great to be able to give Mako a chance in the squad," said Lancaster. "He has come through our age grade sides and made a real impact at Saracens.

"Likewise Tom Youngs, who was with us on tour in South Africa, and we know what James Haskell and Ugo Monye are capable of if they get their opportunity."

While Lancaster has had to consider a host of injuries and recent retirements, Tom Wood and Courtney Lawes will return to the set-up after missing out on the South African tour in the summer due to respective injury problems.

England begin their series against Fiji on November 10, which will be followed by battles against Australia, South Africa and New Zealand.
