Tomorrow's hooker: Alex Mitchell reflects on his incredible Saints journey
Northampton star opens up on England ambitions, his family ties... and being better than his big brother
Never mind striving to become the best No 9 in England... Alex Mitchell has spent much of his 26 years attempting to be better than his big brother.
Despite his lilting Northern brogue - he was born in Maidstone where he still has family but raised in Lancashire after his parents split up at a young age - the former Sale Sharks academy player joined Northampton Saints in 2015 and has continued his progression at the club ever since.
The younger brother of former England U20 scrum half James Mitchell, Alex has always had something to prove - to himself, his family... and his sibling.
