Yarde set to stay at Sharks

-

SALE SHARKS appear to be close to agreeing to a contract extension with former England winger Marland Yarde. Yarde, 28, who has 13 Test caps, moved to the North-West in November 2017 after a two-season stint with Harlequins. The St Lucia-born ace who only took up rugby aged 14 after playing football for Queens Park Rangers age teams started his profession­al career with London Irish. There had been whispers of interest from Newcastle Falcons, but Yarde is settled in Manchester where he has launched a project to help the homeless.
