Dan Leavy has signed a contract extension with Leinster, the club have announced.

The Ireland flanker, currently sidelined after a cartilage procedure, had made nine appearances this season following his return last October from a serious knee injury suffered in 2018.

The Guinness Pro14 champions have announced a number of new contracts in recent days but the inclusion of the 26-year-old in the latest batch will come as a massive boost for the province.

Ronan Kelleher and Jimmy O'Brien also signed new deals, while there has been no announcement made about Ireland prop Tadhg Furlong yet.

Elsewhere, Cormac Izuchukwu and Bradley Roberts became the latest pair to commit to Ulster ahead of the 2021/22 season.
