Tommy Reffell: Wales forward signs new Leicester Tigers deal


Wales flanker Tommy Reffell has signed a new deal with Leicester Tigers to keep him at the club next season.

The 25-year-old made his 100th start in Friday’s 33-0 East Midlands derby win at Northampton.

He played for Wales at the 2023 World Cup and has won 27 caps in total, four of them during the recent Six Nations.

“This club has given me so much and I’ve achieved a lot of my goals here, so I just want to keep earning that faith they’ve shown in me through what I do on the field,” said Reffell, who came through the Tigers youth set-up.

Fellow forwards Emeka Ilione and Tom Manz have also agreed contract extensions with Leicester.

Back row Ilione, 22, has made 38 senior appearances for the Tigers, 16 of them this season, while also studying medicine at the University of Nottingham.

“Emeka has taken massive strides in his development this season,” said general manager Richard Wilks.

Manz, 23, made his Premiership debut against Gloucester earlier this season.
