England centre Ollie Lawrence has signed a new “long-term” contract with Premiership leaders Bath.
The 25-year-old joined the club in October 2022 following the demise of former club Worcester and at the Recreation Ground under under director of rugby Johann van Graan, Lawrence has developed into one of their most consistent performers.
He has made 44 appearances for the club, scoring 16 tries, and has become a mainstay of Steve Borthwick’s England’s midfield having initially struggled for form under previous head coach Eddie Jones.
Lawrence is due to win his 32nd cap for his country in England’s Six Nations opener against Ireland on Saturday.
He said his time at Bath has helped him “grow as a player on and off the field”.
“I believe we have so much potential within this group and I’m excited for what we can achieve over the next few seasons,” Lawrence said.
