Rae extends stay with Edinburgh

Scotland prop D'Arcy Rae has signed a two-year extension to his contract at Edinburgh.

The 30-year-old joined up in October 2023 following a short-term deal with Montpellier after being released by Bath.

Rae had spent eight years with Glasgow Warriors from 2013, earning his debut Scotland cap against Ireland in the 2019 Six Nations.

After a long wait, his second international appearance came as a replacement in November's 57-17 win over Fiji at Murrayfield.

"He showed massive improvement in pre-season and it's great that he's been motivated enough to achieve his goal of playing for Scotland again," Edinburgh head coach Sean Everitt told BBC Scotland.

"We're very happy for him and, for the club, he's going to bring success for us."

Rae is "really chuffed" to extend his stay and added: "At the start of the season I made the decision to properly commit to this city and this great club.

"I've moved east, made Edinburgh my home and I feel like a full pre-season is paying dividends. I'm in great shape and feel really confident every time I take the field."
