By Andrew Merrell | 3rd April 2019
Fans of Gloucester Rugby and its talismanic fly-half Danny Cipriani, can breath easy again - a new deal has been struck between the two parties.
Cipriani's future at the club was in question after it became common knowledge he was comming to the end of his current deal.
But the 31-year-old has now signed what is believed to be a three-year-deal with the Kingsholm club, currently third in the Premiership Table behind Saracens and Exeter.
His decision to stay with Johan Ackermann's side has also been seen as a move which keeps alive his international ambitions.
He told fans on Gloucester Rugby's website: "I'm very pleased. Last year, I waited until the end of May until I signed a contract with anybody, and it's just nice to know that I can settle down for the next three years of my career and life and get the best out of myself at Gloucester Rugby.
"Gloucester Rugby is such a selfless team, everyone's buying into it, there are no egos and everyone's committed to the cause whatever their role. We've got an unbelievable group of players, with talent and personalities from all over the globe. Seeing everyone grow together is going to be special."
Director of Rugby David Humphreys, described Cipriani as "a pivotal part of what we're trying to achieve as a club".
