Simon Zebo has signed a two year deal that will see him remain with Munster until at least June 2018, the IRFU has confirmed.

Zebo is the latest of an international trio to commit their future to the province with fellow backs Keith Earls and Conor Murray already putting pen to paper last week.

To date the 25-year-old has made 96 Munster appearances, the first of which came as a sub-academy player against Connacht at the Sportsground in April 2010. After one year in the full academy programme the winger and fullback secured a senior contract at the beginning of the 2011/12 season and made his European debut against Scarlets at Parc Y Scarlets in December 2011.

Zebo has since become the province’s leading try scorer for the past four seasons, the record league try scorer and the joint all-time try scorer with his most recent try against Stade Francais at Thomond Park seeing him equal Anthony Horgan’s record of 41 tries.

On the international front the Cork-man has won 21 Irish caps, scoring seven tries

"It's great to have even more good news on the contract front today," said Munster head coach Anthony Foley.

“Simon’s record speaks for itself and keeping a player with his experience and versatility is key to our plans going forward so we are delighted that he has committed his future to Munster.”
