Northampton fans braced for ‘end of an era’ with five players set to depart this summer

#3. Alex Moon

Moon will leave the club at the end of the season to join Bayonne.

The 27-year-old has made over 120 appearances since his Saints debut in 2016 and scored three tries.

He is a former England Under-20 international and took part in a 2020 training camp for the senior side.

“Alex’s move was announced very quickly by Bayonne, and we’re disappointed our supporters will have heard the news that way,” boss Phil Dowson said.

“We wanted to keep hold of Moony, but there were a few forces at play, with him wanting to play abroad at some stage and not being involved with England in the here and now.”
