England star Joe Marler commits future to Harlequins

Harlequins have today confirmed that England star Joe Marler has signed a contract extension with the Club.

A product of the Club’s academy, Marler has developed into a world-class loosehead prop since becoming a senior squad member in 2010. The charismatic front row was part of Harlequins’ Amlin Challenge Cup and Aviva Premiership winning campaigns in 2011 and 2012, respectively.





The one-club-man made his debut in 2009 and has since gone on to make over 200 appearances, captaining the Club during the 2014/15 season.




A Lions tourist during the 2017 series in New Zealand, the Eastbourne-born prop gained international honours at every age-grade level before going on to earn his senior England debut in 2012, with 71 caps to date.



Commenting on the news, Marler said: “I am a Harlequin, and I love the Club. Growing up with Harlequins as my boyhood team, I remember getting thrown out of The Stoop as a fan when I was 12 because I had tried to run on the pitch. Now I get the chance to continue my journey with great friends, teammates, coaches, and fans, without getting thrown out... yet!




“I’m immensely proud to have played for Quins over 200 times so far, I even managed to convince one of the previous bosses [Conor O’Shea] to make me captain once! Even more so during this pandemic affecting every single one of us, I cannot wait for my next opportunity to pull on the jersey, run out at The Stoop and welcome back the Quins family.”
