Academy product Jack Singleton to return to Saracens

Saracens have announced that Worcester Warriors hooker Jack Singleton will join the club this summer.

The 23-year-old returns to Allianz Park after coming through the Sarries Academy before departing for Worcester ahead of the 2014/15 campaign.

Prior to making his Premiership debut for the Warriors in October 2016, Singleton impressed in the A League and his form was rewarded with a call-up to the England Under-20s Six Nations squad where he stole the show against Italy with a four-try salvo as they triumphed 42-7.

His success with the U20s continued as he helped England overcome Ireland to win the 2016 World Rugby Championship title alongside Max Malins, Matt Gallagher and Billy Walker.

The former Oaklands College pupil was named Worcester’s 2016/17 Young Player of the Season which led to a call-up to Eddie Jones’ England squad. He played against the Barbarians in an uncapped match at Twickenham ahead of touring Argentina and South Africa with the national side in successive summers.

Hertfordshire born and a boyhood Saracens supporter, Singleton has penned a three-year contract and will replace Toulon-bound Christopher Tolofua in the squad.
