Devin Toner to sort out his future with Leinster next month

The second row, who will be 34 on June 29, is planning to keep playing after his current IRFU contract ends next month

Devin Toner has indicated that his future will be sorted out when Leinster resume training next month.

Blues colleague Fergus McFadden has already confirmed he is retiring at the season's end and it is not yet known if Rob Kearney will play beyond that.

But Ireland second row Toner, who will be 34 on June 29, is planning to keep playing after his current IRFU contract ends next month and the giant lock may well remain with the province.

"I think it will all get cleared up in the next couple of weeks,' Toner said. "It will all become a lot clearer when we come back to training.

"The body has never felt better, to be honest. 

"I know I had a bit of a hiccup about a year and a half ago with my ankle but I got that issue sorted and it's sorted now. 

"Other than that I've been really lucky with injuries but, as I said, I'm feeling good and the body is good so I'm going to go as long as I can. I'm going to try to anyway!".

IRFU bosses revealed on Friday that they are planning for Irish rugby to resume with PRO14 interpro clashes at the Aviva Stadium on the weekend of 22/23 August.

"Obviously we had a very good season up until the end and hopefully we'll be able to pick up where we left off, but there's no point crying about it," said Toner.

"There's nothing we can do about it".
