Mawi signs new Saracens deal

Flying Fijians prop Eroni Mawi has signed a new deal with English club Saracens till the end of 2026/27 season.

The 28-year-old, who adds incredible athletic ability as well as size to the front-row has made 60 appearances for Sarries since arriving in 2020 and brings a huge amount to the scrum alongside the likes of Mako Vunipola and Tom West in the number one shirt.

Mawi won the Championship in his debut season at StoneX Stadium, and then started the Premiership final against Sale Sharks at Twickenham as the Men in Black secured their sixth league title last year.

He is delighted to be remaining in North London for another three years.

“I am so grateful to extend my stay here at Saracens. I’ve learnt so much to help the growth of my career and I’m looking forward to making more memories!”

Director of Rugby Mark McCall is pleased to have secured Mawi’s services.

“Eroni has become a very important member of our squad and is well respected by everyone at the club. His progression over the last three seasons has been fantastic and we firmly believe that his best years are ahead of him.”

Mawi’s vast experience has also seen him represent Fiji at the 2019 and 2023 editions of the Rugby World Cups.

He has so far earned 31 caps for the Flying Fijians.
