John Ryan Signs New Contract

Today at 10:16 AM

Munster Rugby and the IRFU are pleased to confirm a one-year contract extension for John Ryan that will keep him at the province until at least 2026.

The tighthead prop has made 238 Munster appearances to date, scoring six tries and is fifth on the all-time list of record appearance holders for the province.

From Berrings in Cork, Ryan is a 24-cap Ireland international and has already made 15 appearances so far this campaign.

The former Muskerry RFC and CBC prop made his Munster debut in 2011 and earned his first Ireland cap in 2016 before winning the Grand Slam in 2018.

He played at the 2019 Rugby World Cup and made his 150th Munster appearance against Ulster in 2020.

A hectic 2022/23 season saw the 35-year-old line out for Wasps in England, earn a URC winners medal with Munster and reach a Super Rugby Pacific final with the Chiefs in New Zealand.

That campaign saw Ryan make his 200th Munster appearance in December 2022, becoming the 13th player to reach the landmark.

Since returning to the province permanently in 2023, Ryan has made 33 appearances for Munster.
