Scotland centre Sam Johnson has been added to the Barbarians squad for Sunday's game against a World XV at Twickenham.

Ireland back row Jordi Murphy, who will retire at the end of the season, has been called up by the World XV.

Australia winger Marika Koroibete has withdrawn from the World XV line-up, although no reason has been given.

He has been replaced by Fiji Sevens player Kaminieli Rasaku, who won a Commonwealth silver medal last year.

Japan winger Taichi Takahashi has been selected in a Barbarians squad also containing Australia's Quade Cooper and Samu Kerevi.

Australia coach Eddie Jones is coaching the Barbarians and will return to Twickenham for the first time since leaving his role as England coach.

Six Glasgow Warriors players will join the Barbarians and World XV squads following their defeat by Toulon in the European Challenge Cup final on Friday.
