Alex Lozowski has signed a new two-year deal with Saracens but will spend next season on loan at French side Montpellier.

The centre has been a regular for Saracens since joining them from Wasps in the summer of 2016, making over 100 appearances for the club.

Lozowski’s form for Saracens earned him his England debut in 2017, but he has not played for his country since 2018.

Following Saracens’ relegation to the Championship this year, a number of players’ futures at the London club have been thrown into doubt.

Lozowski was one of those in question and he had been linked with a move to fellow Premiership side Bath.

The 26-year-old has now agreed a new two-year deal with Saracens, but he will spend next season on loan in France at Top 14 side Montpellier.

“I’m really happy to have managed to secure my future with Saracens,” said Lozowski.

“It’s a club that have been really good to me over the years and I’ve enjoyed playing here for a long time now.

“I’ll be watching closely and cheering on the lads and hoping they do really, really well next season. I think the team spirit and character will take us back to where we want to be.

“I’m glad that I’ll be able to come back and play in a great team with a great bunch of lads the season after next.”

Director of rugby Mark McCall added: “We are delighted that Alex has chosen to his extend his stay at the club.

“Whilst he has made great progress over the last few years, we firmly believe there is much more to come and we look forward to helping him realise his undoubted potential.”
