Sarries, 2/7 to get the new campaign off to a winning start this weekend when they open the defence of their title with a game against London Wasps, have also extended the contracts of director of rugby Mark McCall and his coaching team until 2014.
“People talk about Saracens as a special club, and they are right in many ways,” said Borthwick.
