Harlequins have confirmed that Scotland international Tim Visser has penned a two-year deal with the Aviva Premiership club.

The 30-year-old wing made his professional rugby debut with Newcastle Falcons in 2007 and switched to Edinburgh in 2010 before joining the Quins in 2015 and since then has gone on to rack 28 tries from 53 appearances for the Twickenham Stoop outfit.

“I am delighted that terms have been agreed for the renewal of Tim’s contract,” Harlequins director of rugby John Kingston said.

“Not only is he a proven try scorer at the highest level, he also is a highly regarded member of the squad, who embraces the environment we are continually striving to develop.”

Visser, who has 33 Scotland caps, added: “A huge part of my reasoning to stay with the club, is having the opportunity to work with the Harlequins coaching staff, especially figures like Nick Evans, and Nick Easter, who’ve really helped me improve over the last year.

“Ultimately, I think that John Kingston is taking the squad to a place that I want to be involved in, so putting pen to paper was a no-brainer for me.”
