England skills coach Rory Teague has signed a three-year contract at French rugby union side Union Bordeaux Begles and will step down from England duty after June's two-Test Argentina tour, according to British media reports.

Teague joined England on secondment for last year's victorious Six Nations campaign and also helped the under-20 squad win the 2016 20 World Rugby Championship. He was hired full-time in January 2017 by head coach Eddie Jones.

Teague has previously worked as an academy coach at Sacarens and Wasps. He coached England flanker Maro Itoje at Harrow before joining Paul Gustard, Neal Hatley and Steve Borthwick in the England set-up.

England begin their Argentina tour on June 10.
