Former France captain Raphael Ibanez has extended his contract with Wasps for another year.

Ibanez will also work as part of Wasps' academy coaching team in a deal that keeps him at the club until the end of next season.

The 35-year-old hooker retired from Test rugby earlier this term, having won 98 caps.

Ibanez said: 'I still want some action as a player. I still have the fire for competition on the pitch, and I believe I can continue to be effective as a player.
