DANNY Cipriani will look to resurrect his England career in time for the 2015 World Cup after agreeing to return to play in his native country following a two-year spell in Australia. The 24-year-old flyhalf will leave the Melbourne Rebels at the end of the current Super 15 campaign and join the Manchester-based Sale Sharks on a three-year deal.
Cipriani was widely considered one of the hottest prospects in English rugby when he made a stunning debut for England in a Six Nations match against Ireland, but has won only six more caps. He became the first England international to join an Australia Super Rugby team when he left London Wasps in 2010.
"Danny has been targeted by many European clubs but has chosen to be based in Manchester as he feels that the Sharks give him the best opportunity to fulfill his aspirations to be the No. 1 flyhalf in England by the time of the 2015 Rugby World Cup," Sale chief executive Steve Diamond said.
