Italy international Riccioni extends Sarries deal


Italy international prop Marco Riccioni has signed a new contract with Premiership club Saracens.

The 27-year-old has made 55 appearances for the club and won one Premiership title since moving to north London from Benetton in 2021.

He has played in 11 of Saracens league games this season, with Mark McCall’s side sixth in the table going into their final match of the regular season against Bath.

“I arrived four years ago having dreamed of playing for this club since I started my career,” he told Saracens’ website, external.

“When I joined, I understood that I was part of something bigger than just a club. I have always felt part of a big family that had my back so I’m very excited to continue my journey here.”

Riccioni has 33 caps since making his debut for Italy in 2019 and has represented the Azzurri in four Six Nations Championships and two Rugby World Cups.

He follows scrum half Gareth Simpson, second row Harry Wilson and back Brandon Jackson in committing his future at StoneX Stadium.
