Versatile England and Saracens back Elliot Daly has signed a new contract until the end of the 2025-26 season with the Premiership club.

The 31-year-old signed from Wasps in 2019 and has made 64 appearances for Sarries, winning the Championship and last season's Premiership title.

"Saracens is a special club and we have made some incredible memories over the last few years,"

Daly has scored 19 tries in 66 caps for England since making his debut in 2016.

He represented his country at the 2019 and 2023 World Cups and has started England's opening two matches of this year's Six Nations on the wing.

Daly has also represented the British and Irish Lions in tours of New Zealand and South Africa.

"We are thrilled that Elliot has extended his stay at the club," Saracens director of rugby Mark McCall said.

"His influence on and off the field is growing all the time and he will be a key figure for us going forward and a huge help to our younger players who will benefit greatly from his experience and rugby IQ.

"Elliot is, on the one hand, hugely driven and competitive, always looking for ways to improve and, on the other, someone who lifts the environment and those around him with his enthusiasm, positivity and energy. We are lucky to have him."

Daly follows England team-mate Maro Itoje in committing his future to Saracens after it was announced former England captain Owen Farrell would move to Racing 92 at the end of the season.
