Saints sign Springbok scrum-half Cobus Reinach

Northampton Saints has today announced the signing of Cobus Reinach ahead of the 2017/18 season.

“Cobus is an excellent player and we’re looking forward to having him at Franklin’s Gardens next season,” said Director of rugby Jim Mallinder. 

“We have been watching him for some time and he has proven time and again what a quality player he is. His set piece skills are excellent and he is a very opportunistic scrum half."

The 27-year-old scrum-half joins the Saints from Durban-based team, The Sharks, where he has played his entire career to date. His senior debut came in 2011 and the first of his 10 caps for South Africa following in 2014.
