Owen Farrell commits future to Saracens with new contract

Saracens have announced that fly-half Owen Farrell has signed a new "long-term" contract with the Aviva Premiership side.

The 23-year-old has made 109 appearances for the club since making his debut in 2008.

"I owe a lot to this club, in terms of how I've improved as a player and how I've done in my career," he told the club website. "Hopefully I've given as much to the club in return.

"I'm delighted that I've been able to extend my deal here and I'm really looking forward to rip into the rest of the season and the years ahead."

On Saturday, Farrell made his return from a knee injury which kept him out of the entire Six Nations in the European Rugby Champions Cup semi-final defeat to Clermont Auvergne.
