Olly Barkley pens London Welsh contract extension

Olly Barkley signs a contract extension with London Welsh.

Former England fly-half Olly Barkley has penned a new deal with London Welsh.

The 33-year-old has made 21 appearances for the Exiles since arriving at the Kassam Stadium last year.

London Welsh have refused to disclose the length of Barkley's contract extension.

"It's not been an easy year, but I'm committed to seeing my journey with London Welsh through," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport. "I'm really looking forward to working with our new team and the reinvigorated coaching regime, which is being put together, to put this season behind us and lay a strong foundation for promotion back to the Premiership for the 2016-17 season."

London Welsh are currently preparing for life in the Championship after their relegation from the Aviva Premiership was confirmed last month.
