Sale Sharks tie down England-linked hooker Jibulu until 2030

Sale Sharks have signed hooker Nathan Jibulu on a new contract running to 2030, less than a year after the 23-year-old arrived from Harlequins. Jibulu made 23 appearances in his first season and earned his first England senior training squad call-up in June. Director of rugby Alex Sanderson praised his "fundamental skills" plus footwork and power with ball in hand.
