Record-breaking Sam Hoskins signs new deal with Cobblers

Record-breaking Sam Hoskins says he is ‘really excited about the future’ after agreeing a new deal with Northampton Town.

The 33-year-old initially joined Cobblers as a trialist all the way back in 2015 and now, 11 years on, is the second highest appearance maker (465) in the club’s history, and also the fourth highest goalscorer (104).

Hoskins, who was named both Cobblers Player of the Season and League Two Player of the Season in 2023, has won three promotions and suffered three relegations in his time at Sixfields, and he’s just finished his testimonial season. The club have not disclosed the length of his new contract.

"I am really pleased to be staying with Northampton Town," said Hoskins. "Everyone knows the affection I have for the club and how settled I am here, and I am as ambitious as ever to help the club move forward.

"I have had some good chats with the new manager and I am really excited about the future. It's great to have my future sorted and I am looking forward to returning and getting through plenty of hard work in pre-season."

Nesta Guinness-Walker, Cameron McGeehan and Lee Burge were also offered new deals by Cobblers at the end of last season but they are yet to make their final decisions.
