Northampton Saints centre Fraser Dingwall signs new contract

Northampton Saints have announced that centre Fraser Dingwall has signed a new contract with the Gallagher Premiership club.

Dingwall first started playing rugby at Cambridge before joining Northampton Saints at the age of 14. He made his professional rugby debut with the Saints in October 2018 during the Premiership game against Leicester Tigers and won the Club’s Young Player of the Season award in 2019/20.

The 24-year-old has racked up 115 appearances scoring 23 tries for the Saints.

“I’m really excited to have extended my time at Saints,” you told the club's official website.

“This is the Club that I grew up supporting, and I’ve been involved here since I was a 13-year-old in the Academy, so this is a place that is very special to my family and me.

“The group we have here is also special, both the players and the staff. I feel like, this year especially, we’re really pushing on towards winning some trophies. I’m also enjoying taking a leadership role within the squad and trying to give what I can to help the players around me.

“The coaching team here is really, really impressive and I couldn’t see anywhere else that I’d develop more as a player – you can see that in so many of the players that come into the environment (via the Academy or from other clubs) and make big improvements to their game.”

Northampton Saints hold the top position in the Gallagher Premiership table with seven wins from 10 matches.
