Young forward commits to Leicester

Jordan Crane has agreed a new contract with Leicester Tigers. Crane, 21, is a promising No.8 who has played in eight of the Tigers' 13 games so far this season. "We are delighted that Jordan has accepted the offer of a new contract," said head coach Marcelo Loffreda. "He is in a very competitive Leicester Tigers squad and he has enjoyed good form this season. "He is one of a number of impressive young English forwards in the Leicester squad and has earned his place in the England Saxons squad for their forthcoming internationals." Crane commented: "I've been pleased with the way things have been going and with the progress I've made this season. "It was a great option for me to stay longer at Leicester. With the quality of the players and the club, it was a bit of a no-brainer really. I wouldn't have signed if I didn't think the club has a bright future."
