Saints legend Paul Grayson is reportedly on the shortlist to become Worcester Warriors’ new attack coach. The former fly-half, who left Northampton in November after 19 years at the club as player and coach, Jim McKay and John Fletcher are the men being targeted, according to the Worcester News.
Grayson is a man new Warriors boss Dean Ryan knows well as the pair played together for England and spent time coaching the national under-21 team. And it now appears Grayson could be set to link up once again with Ryan, who recently moved into the Sixways hot-seat following the departure of Richard Hill. Grayson left Saints at the back end of last year as Jim Mallinder sought to freshen up his coaching staff. And the director of rugby has since acquired the services of Clermont Auvergne attack coach Alex King. But Grayson could now return to Franklin’s Gardens next season, as part of the Worcester setup.
