Gloucester snap up Alex King as attack coach

Gloucester has secured the services of former England international Alex King who will assume an attack coaching role at the club.

King enjoyed a noteworthy playing career, representing Wasps for twelve years before turning out for Clermont Auvergne from 2007 to 2008. The former fly-half immediately took up coaching at Clermont after hanging up his boots and has since been involved with Northampton Saints, Montpellier and Wales.

“I’m very excited to be joining Gloucester Rugby,” King said.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity to be part of the future of a great club with some of the most incredible fans in the game.

“I’m looking forward to being part of George’s new coaching team, and meeting the players soon.”
