Transfer News | Saints sign Harlequins forward

Northampton Saints can today announce that former England U20 international Nick Auterac will join the Club ahead of the 2020/21 season.

The 27-year-old prop will make the switch to Franklin’s Gardens from Gallagher Premiership rivals Harlequins, having also enjoyed a stint with Bath Rugby after graduating from the Saracens Academy set-up.

Auterac also counts Bath among his former clubs, having emerged from Saracens’ Academy setup.

“I’m really excited to be joining a massive club in Northampton Saints, who are proving themselves to be genuine contenders for silverware this season,” said Auterac.

“Saints play an exciting brand of rugby in front of a partisan crowd – having experienced the Franklin’s Gardens atmosphere first-hand, I can’t wait to run out there every week.

“The club’s ambition and upward trajectory over the past couple of years has been clear to see.

“Their scrum in particular has come on leaps and bounds, so I’m really excited to get to work with a talented group of coaches and to challenge for that No.1 jersey in Northampton.”
