Fourie, who can cover both hooker and loose-forward, has not played a test since coming on early in Paris following an injury to Bongi Mbonambi, but was excellent for the Stormers in their 38-21 defeat by New Zealand on Friday.
That match was his first back from long-term injury and his work-rate drew praise from Stormers coach John Dobson.
"An incredible performance for a guy who’s again coming back from a serious injury. He’s almost 40. He made three tackles in 15 seconds, and two of them were try-saving," Dobson told reporters.
Fourie's inclusion could be as cover for Springbok captain Siya Kolisi, who limped out of Saturday's win over Argentina with a recurrence of his hamstring issue that has thrown his series against New Zealand in serious doubt.
The Springboks play New Zealand in three home tests starting on August 22 in Johannesburg, with a fourth in Baltimore in the United States.
