Ireland captain Peter O’Mahony has signed a new one-year contract with Munster, bringing to an end speculation over the veteran flanker’s future.
O’Mahony’s future had been uncertain for much of this season after he stepped down as Munster captain.
He led Ireland to a second successive Six Nations title in March after being named captain following Johnny Sexton’s retirement.
O’Mahony’s deal keeps him with Munster until the end of the 2024-25 season.
O’Mahony, who captained the British and Irish Lions against the All Blacks in 2017, made his Munster debut in 2010.
The 34-year-old has made 182 appearances and won two league titles with the province, including last season’s United Rugby Championship.
He has won 105 caps for Ireland, winning five Six Nations titles and two Grand Slams.
The Cork native was made Munster captain in 2013 but he stepped away from the role in November.
