The former British and Irish Lion back rejoined the province last summer following a three-year spell at French club Racing 92.

Zebo is Munster’s record try scorer, having registered 62 times in 148 appearances since his debut in 2010, including two in four this campaign.

The 31-year-old, whose new deal was announced on the club’s website, has been capped 35 times by Ireland and was part of the Lions’ 2013 tour to Australia.

After returning from France, he was recalled to his country’s squad in the autumn but was not selected for Dublin wins over Japan, New Zealand and Argentina.

Diarmuid Barron, Jack Daly, Ben Healy, Keynan Knox and Jeremy Loughman have also agreed new deals with Munster.
