Northampton Saints sign Fraser Dingwall on first senior contract

Northampton Saints can today announce that centre Fraser Dingwall has put pen to paper on his first senior contract at Franklin’s Gardens.

The 19-year-old initially signed for the Club’s Senior Academy at the start of the 2017/18 season, having been on the books with Saints since 2012, and starred for England Under-20s in both the Six Nations and World Championships earlier this year.

Dingwall will now continue to represent the Club for at least two more seasons.

Dingwall rose through the ranks at the Club while also representing Bedford School, and was soon recognised at international level with both Scotland and England age group appearances.

Saints’ director of rugby Chris Boyd said:

“Fraser is a really talented footballer who has grasped his opportunities to play for Northampton with both hands so far this season.

“He’s part of a fantastic crop of exciting young players coming through our Academy, and has progressed an enormous amount in the short time I’ve been with Saints.

“Fraser is a popular member of the squad and, at 19 years old, his best is of course still to come – we’re really excited for him to reach his full potential here at Franklin’s Gardens.”
