Newcastle Falcons have extended centre Max Clark’s short-term loan to keep him at the club until the end of the current season.
The 29-year-old centre arrived from Saracens on a three-month deal in mid-December, scoring on his Gallagher Premiership debut at Bristol Bears before helping the club reach the quarter-finals of the Premiership Rugby Cup.
Falcons have been sufficiently impressed with his contributions for director of rugby Steve Diamond to suggest he may stay at the club beyond the summer.
“Max has fitted straight in here and done really well in his short time with us. He has loads of top-level experience which is very obvious when he plays,” said Diamond.
“I’m glad that we’ve been able to extend his contract until at least the end of this season, and I’m looking forward to seeing his continued positive impact.”
