• ‘I wouldn’t even contemplate doing it. For me it’s all about Leinster‘
Stuart Lancaster is not interested in the vacant job at Harlequins and has ruled out a return to the Aviva Premiership in the immediate future. The former England head coach wants to remain involved at Leinster, who face Racing 92 in the European Champions Cup final in Bilbao on Saturday.
There has been speculation linking Lancaster with the Quins role held previously by John Kingston but he is keen to continue working in Ireland and see out his contract with the increasingly powerful Irish province. “I’ve had no communication from Quins and I’ve certainly not proactively put myself forward for it,” the 48-year-old said.
