Shaun Edwards signs a new deal as Wales defence coach.

Shaun Edwards has signed a new four-year deal as Wales defence coach.

The 45-year-old, who left his position as Wasps head coach in November, had seen his contract with Wales expire at the end of the recent Rugby World Cup.

However, he has now put pen to paper on new terms, which has left Wales Rugby Union chief Roger Lewis delighted.

"I'm delighted for Welsh rugby, I'm delighted for the team of coaches we've got and I'm delighted for Shaun," he said.

Edwards had been linked with a role with the England rugby team.
