New deal for Jonathan Evans at Scarlets

Scarlets have confirmed that scrum-half Jonathan Evans has signed a new deal keeping with the club.

 
The 25-year-old joined the Scarlets ahead of the 2016-17 season from Bath Rugby.

 
Evans’ debut season at the Scarlets saw him make 24 appearances including appearances off the bench in both the Guinness PRO12 semi-final and final in Dublin.

 
He scored five tries in his first season in West Wales and has continued his good form into the 2017-18 season making ten appearances thus far.

 
Evans is amongst a strong group of Scarlets who have renewed their contracts with the region as head coach Wayne Pivac looks to replicate last season’s successes and steer his side to a second consecutive Guinness PRO14 final.

 
The West Wales region currently top Conference B with eleven victories from thirteen games and still have hopes of making a first European quarter-final since 2007 as they head to Bath this Friday evening for the fifth round of the campaign.
