Fly-half Orlando Bailey has signed a new two-year deal to stay at Bath until the summer of 2026.

The 22-year-old has made 71 Bath appearances since making his debut as a teenager four years ago.

Bath-born Bailey progressed through the club's academy and has represented England at under-20 level.

"He made his debut at a very young age and he's grown and is ready to lead our team," said the club's head of rugby, Johann van Graan.

"He is working with all of the other back line players to get better and he's got an incredible work ethic. He's from Bath and I am incredibly proud of Orlando."

Bailey follows forward Josh Bayliss, number eight Jaco Coetzee and full-back Tom de Glanville, who all signed new deals in the last week.
