Leeds utility back Richie Myler has agreed a new three-year contract with the Rhinos that will keep him at Headingley until the end of 2024.
The 31-year-old former Salford Red Devils, Warrington Wolves and England scrum-half, who joined Leeds from Catalans Dragons in 2018, faced an uncertain future following the arrival of Luke Gale in 2020 but made a successful switch to full-back.
He will compete with Jack Walker for the full-back role next season while providing cover at half-back.
Leeds coach Richard Agar said: “I am really pleased for Richie that he has agreed this new deal.
“A couple of seasons ago, he found himself at a crossroads and he has reinvented himself and taken on a number of roles within our squad.
“He is an important player for us at full-back, as we saw with his Lance Todd trophy-winning performance in 2020, but he also brings versatility in a number of key positions.
“He has evolved into a great team player and a real club man. He has settled into life at the Rhinos and I know he calls Leeds his home now and this is a just reward for his hard work and effort.”
Myler, who has won eight caps with England, said: “I am really pleased to have got my new deal finalised and I am looking forward to the next three years.
“There is an incredible family atmosphere at the club and I cannot wait to be part of what this group can achieve in the next few years.
“I have been fortunate to play for a number of clubs in my career but I feel like I have found a home here at Leeds.
“Richard Agar has done a tremendous job of moving the club forward and I am excited to see the strength in depth we have this season within our squad.”
