Freddie Steward has become one of the most watched fullbacks in world rugby

He plays with pace, a strong boot and smart positioning that change games. If you want quick updates, this tag gathers match reports, injury news, transfer talk and stats in one place.

Fans love his ball-carrying

Steward breaks lines and gains metres after contact. He reads opposition kicks well and rarely gives away easy yards. Those tackles and high-ball wins often swing momentum late in matches.

On defence he is calm under pressure

Steward times his tackles and covers space quickly. Opponents try to exploit gaps but his recovery speed reduces big breaks. Coaches praise his decision making and his work rate in training.

His kicking is another asset. Steward clears danger with length and accuracy, and he can turn defence into attack with a long, precise boot. That skill helps Leicester in tight games and gives England options when building phases.

Looking for facts? Here are quick stats. He made his England debut as a teenager and has since featured in Six Nations campaigns. Club form includes key performances for Leicester Tigers in Premiership and European matches. He has scored important tries and supplied try-saving tackles in big fixtures.
