England international back Alex Lozowski has agreed a contract extension with Aviva Premiership leaders Saracens.

The reigning European champions said Lozowski's new deal will keep him at Allianz Park until 2020.

Lozowski, 24, has proved to be an integral part of the Saracens squad since he joined them from Wasps last year, offering quality options at fly-half and centre.

And that form was rewarded by him winning two caps on England's successful Argentina tour four months ago.

"We are delighted that Alex has agreed a new deal," Saracens rugby director Mark McCall said.

"Alex will have an important role to play for us as he continues to develop as a player, so naturally we are very happy to announce that he will be staying at Allianz Park until at least 2020.

"In his brief time at the club, Alex has already shown how good a player he is, but the most exciting thing for us is how much improvement we believe there is to come from him alongside our core of young, hungry, home-grown players."

Lozowski's deal follows fresh terms signed in recent weeks at Saracens by the likes of Owen Farrell, Jamie George and Nick Isiekwe.

"I have really benefited from being in the environment and from being around good players and good coaches," Lozowski said.

"I think being surrounded by the calibre of guys that we've got here is only going to bring your game up. I am really grateful to be part of this team."
