The scrum-half suffered the injury in the 75th minute of last night's showpiece after being hit by a late tackle.

With Les Bleus heading Down Under on June 2 for the three-Test tour against Australia and New Zealand, Parra could be struggling to make the party.

"I am not a doctor but his injury is serious and I really fear he'll miss the tour," Bourgoin assistant coach Xavier Pemeja said.

Parra was one of two scrum-halves named by France head coach Marc Lievremont for the trip, along with Leicester's Julien Dupuy.

Biarritz's Dimitri Yachvili or Toulouse's Jean-Baptiste Elissalde could come in as a replacement if Parra is ruled out.
