The 25-year-old joined Tigers from Bath in 2025 as a fly-half and has since also played at centre and full-back. He has made seven appearances for Leicester this season, with the team leading the Premiership in the early stages of the campaign.

Bailey also earned international recognition during his time at Leicester, playing for the second-string England A side. Before his move, he made 99 appearances over five seasons at Bath.

Bailey said: “I’m glad I made the move for more game time and to explore what I can do with my career.”

Tigers head coach Geoff Parling told the club website: “Landy is comfortable at either 10 or 12, pushes himself to get better and is a great team-mate to be around. His ability to see pictures and move the ball to space is some of the best I’ve come across, and it’s great that he sees the best place to continue his development as being here.”
