London have handed academy product Olsi Krasniqi a two-year contract extension.

The 27-year-old – who was born in Albania – will stay at the Broncos until the end of the 2021 season.

Krasniqi made 92 appearances at London between 2010-14 before enjoying spells at Salford, Toronto and Bradford. He re-joined London back in May.

He commented: “I am really pleased to have signed a new deal here at London Broncos.

“It was an easy decision to make as I have really enjoyed being back in the capital.

“The club has given me so much from being a scholarship player to making my professional debut and then giving me the chance to come back home this year.

“The most important thing now is to do my best and to do the jersey the justice it deserves.”

Broncos coach Danny Ward added: “Olsi has performed really well since being back at the Broncos and we are very happy to extend his contract.

“To come into the team halfway through the season can be tough but he has fitted in well within the group.

“He brings a lot of experience and is developing in a leadership role, passing his knowledge down to the younger guys.”
