Northampton Saints scrum-half Alex Mitchell is determined to lead his club to new heights, setting his sights on securing more titles.
Following his recent contract extension with Northampton, Alex Mitchell has clearly articulated the team`s primary objective for the upcoming season: to bring more silverware back to the club. The talented scrum-half, who plays for both England and the British & Irish Lions, firmly believes that the current squad possesses the potential to surpass its achievements from previous years.
In 2024, it was Mitchell`s crucial try that secured the Premiership title for the Saints. However, in the subsequent season, their journey in the Champions Cup ended in a final defeat to Bordeaux. Mitchell noted that this disappointment has only fueled the team`s resolve.
The player highlighted that Northampton`s current squad, combined with a competent coaching staff, provides a strong foundation for competing for trophies on all fronts. The club aims to achieve consistently high results, firmly establish itself among the top teams, and regularly reach finals at both national and European levels.
Mitchell, who boasts 23 caps for England and two test appearances for the British & Irish Lions, stressed that his extensive international experience helps him maintain the confidence and leadership qualities essential for the club`s success in the new season.
