Devin Toner has signed a new two-year contract with the IRFU which will see him remain at Leinster until at least June 2017.
The 28-year-old has won 20 caps for Ireland, his last in the 26-23 victory over Australia in November. He won the RBS 6 Nations Championship this year and at club level has collected three Heineken Cups, an Amlin Cup and three Pro12 league titles with Leinster, for whom he has made 157 appearances.
"It is great to have signed on for another two years with Leinster,” said Toner.
“I have been with the province for almost a decade and during that time the club have invested a lot in my development and have given me the platform to reach my potential and achieve success at both provincial and national level.”
IRFU Performance Director David Nucifora said: "Devin has developed into an international level second row over the last few seasons.
“He has performed consistently at a high level for both Ireland and Leinster and is illustrating strong leadership skills in both the provincial and national environments.”
