Cadan Murley re-signs with Quins

The eighth player to recommit to Quins this month, Harlequins Academy product Murley has put pen to paper with the reigning Gallagher Premiership champions.

Joining the Club’s full-time training programme ahead of the 2017/18 campaign, Murley made a fast start to his senior career with Harlequins, making his debut later that season against Scarlets in the Anglo-Welsh Cup.

Now a regular starter with a Gallagher Premiership title, over 60 appearances and 17 tries to his name, Murley extends a six-year relationship with the Club having joined the Academy set-up at 16.

Commenting on his new deal, Murley said: “It’s great to be able to re-sign here with Quins. This is a team looking to build something special and I want to continue my role in what we’re doing.

“This group has a great culture and plays some of the best rugby in the game at the moment. It’s fantastic to be able to be a part of a team that plays the way Harlequins do.

“To be able to play that kind of rugby alongside mates and great backroom staff is rare. I’m thrilled to recommit and I can’t wait to get back into it this weekend.”

Skills and Kicking Coach Charlie Mulchrone said: “It’s great to see Cadan recommit to the Club. He has been a consistently outstanding performer for the Club for the last few years and has a fantastic all-around game.

“He’s one of that batch of Harlequins Academy products that have shot up through the ranks over the last three years or so. We’re seeing the next group of youngsters looking to emulate what guys like Cadan, Marcus Smith and Joe Marchant have done as they’ve grown into the senior side. It’s great to have guys like him in the starting XV each week.

“We’re thrilled to have Cadan re-sign and look forward to seeing him continue his development as a senior player.”
