Former Munster boss Johann van Graan signs new Bath deal until 2030

The 44-year-old arrived at the Premiership club in 2022.

FORMER MUNSTER BOSS Johann van Graan has committed his long-term future to Bath after signing a new deal until 2030.

The 44-year-old arrived at the Premiership club in 2022 and guided his new side to Champions Cup qualification in his first season.

Bath are currently challenging for the play-offs with just two games remaining of the regular season, having reached the knockout stage of Europeโ€™s elite rugby competition for the first time since 2015.

โ€œIโ€™m proud to be committing my future to this historic club in blue, black and white and I am loving the journey we are on,โ€ Van Graan said.

โ€œRugby is about people, purpose, creating memories and making a difference and my family and I are looking forward to our future in Bath.

โ€œIโ€™d like to acknowledge and thank the board, staff, players, and supporters who, together, make Farleigh House and The Rec such special places. We are creating a unique culture with purpose, and we are in, all in, all the time.โ€

    Best CB in England the last 15 years, Controversial but if Chelsea dont want him, Welcome to Anfield!! Would add steel and leadership to the squad.

    @Martin Redington: the reason people hate him is because heโ€™s the captain of Chelsea who after abramovic invested his millions became a powerhouse of the English game theyโ€™ve won more trophies than united in that time and donโ€™t even mention Liverpoo or the goonettes thatโ€™s the real reason people hate him.

    โ€œOh john terry wherever you may be,
    you just cant take a penalty,
    you f*^ked it up,
    in the european cup,
    and youโ€ve still got no historyโ€.

    the goal was tall and the goal was wide,
