Jono Kitto signs new Leicester Tigers deal

Scrum-half Jono Kitto has agreed new terms with Leicester Tigers to stay beyond the end of this season.

"I've felt very honoured to be part of a club as prestigious as the Leicester Tigers and to be able to represent what the club stands for as often as I have is great. I was very happy to agree a new contract and remain part of that,” said Kitto.

The 24-year-old Kitto, who is English qualified, joined Tigers in the summer of 2015 and has made 24 first-team appearances, including Saturday's Premiership win over Gloucester Rugby at Welford Road.
