Henry Pollock's new Northampton Saints deal worth £400k - sources

England star Henry Pollock has ended speculation over his future by signing a new multi-year deal with Northampton Saints.

Sources have told ESPN the new contract is worth in the region of £400,000 a year. Pollock recently said he was weighing up his options, but he has committed his future to Northampton Saints.

Pollock's advisor Eddie Hearn previously said the 21-year-old was a "seven-figure player." The new deal falls short of that mark, but it is a sizeable increase on his previous contract.

Pollock's popularity has exploded in the past couple of seasons, with his form for both club and country seeing his profile skyrocket. He has 13 caps for England while he made five appearances for the British & Irish Lions on their tour of Australia in 2025.

"I'm massively happy to re-sign with Saints, my boyhood club," Pollock said. "It's an exciting place to be right now. We're in a great spot as a team, but it feels like there's still so much more growth in us.

"I'm still young, and we've got a young squad with a brilliant group of lads. Some of my best mates are here, and every day everyone pushes each other to improve and be the best players and team we can be. For where I am in my career, this is exactly where I want to be.

"I feel like we're only just getting started. We won the PREM last season and we want to go again. Winning the Champions Cup is another huge ambition for us. We came so close a couple of years ago, and achieving that together would be incredibly special."

Saints' director of rugby, Phil Dowson, said: "We're delighted that Henry has committed his future to Saints. Over the last few years, everyone has seen the quality he brings on the pitch and the speed of his rise through the game -- but just as importantly, he's a young man of outstanding character.

"What's most exciting is that there's still so much more to come from him. Henry is incredibly ambitious and constantly looking for ways to improve. He understands that individual success comes from contributing to a successful team, and he's already taken on leadership responsibilities within the squad despite his age.

"Physically, he's an exceptional athlete. He's explosive, powerful and highly skilful, with the ability to influence a game in a number of different ways. But there are still areas of his game he can develop, and one of Henry's greatest strengths is how quickly he learns and adapts.

"People sometimes underestimate how intelligent he is as a rugby player. When we sit down to review performances, he's often identified the same things we were going to discuss before we've even raised them. His understanding of the game is excellent, and that gives him a huge platform to keep progressing.

"He's become an important figure not just for Saints, but for the wider game. He inspires young supporters, brings excitement to rugby, and understands that everything off the pitch is built on performing consistently on it. We're excited to see what he can achieve over the coming years."
