Catalans prop Lambert Belmas has signed a new one-year contract.

The 23-year-old came through the club’s academy and has made 16 first team appearances to date. He has earned two caps for France.

Belmas said: “I’m really happy to have signed a new contract for the club.

“After a tough season, it has been difficult for me to play some games but a new season will start and I can’t wait to be back with my team-mates, to work hard and to make my place in the squad.”

Dragons coach Steve McNamara said: “Lambert has worked extremely hard over the last period and has suffered the same frustration as many other players of not playing much in 2020.

“Next year will be a very important year for him as he tries to establish himself in the gameday team on a weekly basis.”
