It’s been confirmed this morning that Aaron Hinkley has left Northampton Saints by mutual consent. It’s fair to say that it is a shock departure.
His shock departure was confirmed with a single paragraph at the end of the press release about Alex Waller’s new contract.
Saints’ statement read: “Northampton Saints can confirm that Aaron Hinkley has left the Club by mutual consent. The back row forward arrived at cinch stadium at Franklin’s Gardens at the end of the 21/22 season, making 19 appearances in Black, Green and Gold.”
Speculation online suggests the 23-year-old has fallen out with the Saints staff.
Reacting to the news, one fan wrote: “What the actual f*ck??? Been immense when he’s played… some weird goings on at the club currently and doesn’t bode well!”
A second commented: “Wow, was not expecting that!”
Another said: “WTAF”
