The Wales skipper has made 68 appearances for the black, green and gold since arriving from Ospreys during the summer of 2018.

But the 32-year-old has been unable to enjoy a major trophy win at Saints so far, with the club having lost in two Premiership play-off semi-finals during his time at the club.

Saints harbour hopes of a title win this season - and Biggar will clearly be doing everything he can to deliver it.

“I have loved my time at Northampton Saints, a traditional rugby club which is full of great people from top to bottom," Biggar said.

"It has been a privilege to wear the black, green and gold jersey.

“I wish I could have played more for the club – I missed a few matches over the last few years due to my international commitments, but there isn’t a better place to play rugby than Franklin’s Gardens in front of an incredible group of supporters.

“I have made new friendships that will last forever, and it has been a pleasure to watch the young crop of Academy guys mature and develop into first-team senior pros.

“There are too many brilliant people here to mention, but I hope we can all finish the season in spectacular fashion as we did last year, and go a couple of steps further!

“A special thank you has to go to Boydy (Chris Boyd). I can’t thank him enough for the way that he treated me, and gave me so many opportunities to represent this club.

“Saints will always be very special to me – and that includes the club’s magnificent supporters, who have welcomed me in and supported me wholeheartedly through both the highs and lows. It really has been a privilege to play for your club.

“Northampton will be the first result I look for on a Saturday afternoon moving forward!

"I hope that in the future I can come back, see lots of familiar faces and enjoy the Gardens as a fan as much as I did a player.

"Thank you for everything.”
