Bristol back rower Steven Luatua has signed a new contract with the club to stay through the 2025-26 season. <\/b><\/p>\n

Luatua is one of Bristol’s longest-serving players and is set to make his 150th appearance for the club this weekend away against Northampton. <\/p>\n

The 33-year-old joined the Bears in 2017 when they were still in the Championship and was the first signing director of rugby Pat Lam made for the club.<\/p>\n

“He’s been here as long as myself and he’s been brilliant,” Lam told BBC Radio Bristol.<\/p>\n

“A lot of fans talk about him being the best signing and that’s on the work that he’s done on and off the field. He’s a fantastic leader and he’s captained the team 90 times, a high success rate. <\/p>\n

“Everyone looks up to him, the referees talk highly of him, opposition have a lot of respect for him. It’s great that he’s continuing his journey with us.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
