Healy signs new deal
Cian Healy has signed a new 3 year deal with the Leinster and the IRFU.
The prop will now stay with Leinster until the 2019 World Cup in Japan.
Healy commented on the contract, saying: "I feel that I am coming back to full fitness now and would like to thank the medical and S&C teams for their ongoing support.
"There are a lot of exciting, young, talented players coming through at Leinster and Ireland and I am looking forward to competing for silverware over the next few seasons.”
IRFU performance director David Nucifora said: "Cian is one of the most explosive athletes in world rugby and has proven for both Ireland and Leinster his ability to compete at the highest levels of the game.
"We are delighted that Cian has committed to playing in Ireland up until after the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan.”
Healy joins a long list of Leinster renewals and also the signing of Robbie Henshaw.
