England’s Earl extends Saracens deal until 2029

Saracens will run until 2029 under new contract signed by England back rower Ben Earl.

The 27-year-old made his Sarries debut at the age of 18 and has spent the majority of his time playing for the club in north London despite only having a short loan spell in Bristol.

Earl was a member of Sarries’ 2018-19 team that won the European Champions Cup and the three-time Premiership.

He has made three appearances so far this season, and he will face Bath on Sunday.

“I’m really enjoying how much I can stay in my boyhood club. He stated on the club website that “I believe I have the best chance to reach my full potential and achieve something special with my best mates.”

Earl has seven tries and can play flanker and number eight for his country and his club.

He was a member of Steve Borthwick’s side that finished third at the 2023 Rugby World Cup and participated in all four of England’s 2020 campaign for the Six Nations title.

He played in all three of England’s autumn internationals this November and was chosen for the British and Irish Lions’ summer tour to Australia.

Ben has played rugby for Saracens since he was 14 years old, developing from a promising young academy talent to a star player on the global stage, according to Sarries’ rugby director, Mark McCall.

We are thrilled that he has resigned from the club because he has Saracens in his DNA.
