Harlequins scrum-half Danny Care has signed a new contract for next season.

"I'm excited to extend my contract with Quins for my 19th season at the club. This is my home, I love everything about it, the rugby we play, our amazing fans, and the memories we have made together," said Care.

"It was an easy decision to sign the contract, we have a great group of lads who I love playing with, and we're building something very special. We have the best fans in the world, and I can't wait to pull on the Quarters for another season and run out in front of a packed Stoop."
