Mark Jennings pens new deal with Sale Sharks

Sale Sharks have announced that Mark Jennings has signed a new deal with the Aviva Premiership club.

Jennings, who was the youngest player to have received a professional contract from Sale Sharks when he was 16, has penned a two-year contract with the AJ Bell Stadium outfit.

The 24-year-old has also been part of Sedgley Park side five times when he was on loan in 2012 and has represented England Under-20 team in 2013.

" Mark has come through the ranks at Sharks," Sale rugby director Steve Diamond told the club's official website.

"He has stayed loyal to the club since joining as a 16-year-old, and he will play a big part in what we are building at the club."
