Wasps forward Alex Rieder has signed a new contract with the Premiership club.

The 26-year-old, who joined the club from Rotherham Titans ahead of the 2015-16 season, has made 23 appearances, scoring two tries.

He is currently out of action after dislocating his shoulder against Harlequins in September, but is expected to return in the new year.

Hooker Tom Cruse, 28, who has also been out injured, has also signed a new contract.

Utility forward Ashley Johnson signed an undisclosed-length deal earlier in the week.
