Sale captain Jono Ross has signed a new three-year deal with the Sharks.

Ross joined the club from Stade Francais ahead of the 2017-18 season and was named captain at the start of the current campaign.

And the 28-year-old flanker is predicting a bright future for the club.

"We have a fantastic group of boys at the club and we are building towards something special here in the North-West," he told the Sale Sharks website.

"My wife and I have settled nicely in Manchester and I had no hesitation when Steve asked me to stay at the club. I am really excited to continue my journey here and believe that there are big things to come in the very near future."

Sale director of rugby Steve Diamond added: "Jono Ross is one of the most professional and dedicated players I have ever had the privilege to coach.
