Three-year extension for Russell
Western Daily Press
|June 20, 2025
FINN Russell has signed a new deal with Bath Rugby that will keep him at the Gallagher Premiership champions until 2028.
The 32-year-old kicked 13 points and added a crucial try-creating interception in Saturday's 23-21 victory over Leicester Tigers to inspire the Blue, Black & Whites to an historic treble and first Gallagher Premiership title in 29 years.
Russell, who joined Bath in 2023, has made 45 appearances and scored 420 points in all competitions, and finished the 2024-25 Premiership season with 183 points.
"I have loved my time here at Bath," the British & Irish Lion told the club website. "It's a great team and a great club. We've come a long way over the last couple of years and I am really looking forward to staying here and seeing what the club can achieve.
"The fans have been outstanding since I got here. We've had some big results at home and that’s our way of giving back to the fans and trying to represent them in the right way."
