“I have re-signed at Bath in the last week, so I am there for the foreseeable,” Max Ojomoh told Sky Sports.

England before France

Out of contract, Ojomoh had looked at offers in France. “With the limited opportunities I have had over the last 10 months it was something I had to weigh up. But what I want to do is represent my country, represent my city,” he said. A move abroad would have ruled him out of England selection, as England only pick players based in England, barring exceptions.

104 matches for Bath

A Bath native, Ojomoh has played 104 matches for the club since 2019-20, 84 of them as a starter, scoring 18 tries. This season he has played four Premiership matches, three as a starter, and one in the Champions Cup. He has two England caps, the last against Argentina in November 2025, when he scored a try. He was recalled after scoring for England A against an Argentina XV (59-24) on 6 November, and replaces Seb Atkinson, who has a hip injury.

Son of Steve Ojomoh

His father, Steve Ojomoh, a Bath back-rower, played for England at the 1995 World Cup.
