Goode off to Japan on loan

Alex Goode and Saracens have agreed a contract extension keeping the long serving back at the club until 2023. Goode joined the Saracens Academy 14 years ago and is set to be one of a few that will reach 300 appearances for the club.

His contract has been agreed in conjunction with a loan spell at the end of the current season which will see him head to Japan where he has signed with NEC Green Rockets. 

Director of Rugby Mark McCall: “Alex Goode is one of the most gifted players of his generation.   

“To watch him play is to be reminded of the subtle, skilful and intangible aspects that encapsulate great rugby performances.  His balance on the run, bravery in the air and execution under pressure have often made the difference in the club’s biggest moments.   

“On and off the field, Alex has dedicated himself to the Saracens project since his early days in our Academy and has been a vital part of all we have achieved. We are thrilled he has committed his future to the club.”
