North signs new deal with Saints
Wales wing George North has signed a new contract with Premiership club Northampton Saints.
The 23-year-old's previous deal was due to expire next summer.
North, capped 55 times by Wales and also a British and Irish Lions player, has appeared 42 times for Saints since joining from Scarlets in 2013.
"He is a proven world-class performer, something he has shown over and over again in his time here," said Saints director of rugby Jim Mallinder.
North stated, "It has been a pleasure to play for this great club and for its fans, who are some of the best in rugby.
"It's been a fantastic couple of years where we have enjoyed much success and is a hugely competitive environment where I can continue to develop and improve as a player."
