Scotland flanker Magnus Bradbury has signed a new deal with Edinburgh. The 24-year-old, who has 11 caps, is in his sixth season with the club and scored nine tries in 74 appearances.

“I’m really happy to have been given the opportunity to re-sign with the club that I’ve spent my whole career with,” Bradbury said.

“It’s a great place to be and it’s brilliant to be part of a team that is so driven to succeed and compete at the highest level.

“Edinburgh is an exciting place to be at the moment and I'm looking forward to seeing the results that this team can produce moving forward.”

Coach Richard Cockerill added: “Magnus has developed into a really strong, international calibre back-row and he’ll be a big player for this club in the years to come.

“He’s an Edinburgh man who has already played a lot of games for this club at a young age. We’re delighted to have re-signed another young player who is part of a strong core of Scotland internationals.”
