"His experience and love for the club is hugely important in an evolving squad with lots of talented and exciting youngsters."

Leeds-born Care trails fellow ex-England internationals Mike Brown (340) and Chris Robshaw (300) on Harlequins' all-time appearances list.

He won a total of 84 caps for his county, making his debut against New Zealand in June 2008 and last featuring against Japan at Twickenham in November 2018, and scored 14 tries.
