The 25-year-old academy product has made 117 appearances for the club since making his debut in 2018, and was named vice-captain over the summer. He will now remain at the club, although the length of his new deal has not be specified.

Despite missing the start of the season with a hamstring injury, the wing is a member of the England A squad that will take on Australia A on Sunday at his home ground, Twickenham Stoop.

Though still uncapped, Murley has been a member of England training squads in the past, and scored a hat-trick in England A’s meeting with Portugal in February.

In Quins colours, Murley has scored 53 tries to date, 15 of which made him the Gallagher Premiership top try-scorer in the 2022/23 campaign.

“It’s a privilege to extend my contract here at Harlequins,” said Murley.

“It’s been a special year so far having led the team out [as captain] at the club I have supported since I was a little boy – every time I step out at The Stoop the fans are unbelievable.

“Getting back from injury was a massive moment already this year, and to have three 80-minutes under my belt is great. The depth we have throughout the team is something we haven’t had in previous years, so I’m excited to see where it can take us this season and beyond.

“I’ve still got lots to learn, and there are things that I still want to achieve in my career, but I know Harlequins is the place for me to do that with the coaching group we have.”

Harlequins head coach Danny Wilson added: “Cadan is a fantastic rugby player and leader within our group, but what excites me most about him committing his future to the Club is his desire to be even better in every part of his game on and off the field.

“He’s developed great leadership skills and drives others to be at their best for the team and wider Quins community. We’re all pleased Cadan will continue his journey at the Club and looking forward to seeing how he’ll contribute to our success on the pitch this season and beyond.”
