Donncha O'Callaghan has agreed a contract extension with Munster, that will see him remain with the province until June 2016.

The Irish second row is Munster's most capped forward, with 230 caps to his name.

He is set to surpass fellow Cork man Ronan O'Gara's all-time leading tally of 240 Munster appearances.

O'Callaghan was released from Joe Schmidt's Ireland squad for the November Internationals to allow him to play in Munster's win over Ospreys.
