Len Ikitau: Australia centre hopes for Exeter return in 2027

Australia centre Len Ikitau says he would like to return to Exeter in the future.

The 27-year-old is on a one-season deal at Sandy Park before he returns home to the Brumbies ahead of the 2027 World Cup in Australia.

Regarded as one of the premier centres in world rugby, Ikitau has scored two tries in an injury-hit spell at Exeter – he missed four months after needing shoulder surgery in December.

“I think looking towards the end of 2027, there’s a potential chance of coming back if everything falls into place,” he told BBC Sport.

“I’ve loved my time here and I’ve really enjoyed it, my family’s enjoyed it and hopefully this isn’t the end.”
