Glasgow confident Jones will re-sign

Glasgow Warriors are "very confident" Huw Jones will sign a new contract with the club, says assistant coach Jason O'Halloran.

The 24-year-old Scottish centre has been linked with a move away from Scotstoun when his deal expires at the end of the season. 

"It will be a great fillip for the club with Stuart Hogg moving on," O'Halloran said of retaining Jones.

"It's great that potentially we're going to look after Huw and keep him around.

"We're very confident he's going to be back on board."

The contracts of other key players at Scotstoun also expire at the end of the season, including those of scrum-half George Horne and fly-half Adam Hastings.

"There's definitely priorities around those two young half-backs, in particular, to have them stay at the club," O'Halloran told BBC Sport.

"Along with Matt Fagerson, that eight, nine, 10 triumvirate with those three young guys is looking really strong. That's a crucial backbone to the team and it's something we'd like to secure the future of very quickly."
