"I am happy to have re-signed with Leinster for another season," he said. "There is a huge amount of talent in the squad and it is an exciting time to be involved with both Leinster and Ireland.

Leinster CEO Mick Dawson said: "Mike has made a huge contribution to the Leinster environment since joining us in 2009.

"He continues to be an integral member of our squad and is also playing a key role in the development of emerging talent at the club. His performances for club and country this season illustrate his value to Irish rugby."
