Former Saracens winger Noah Cato has joined Newcastle Falcons from Northampton Saints.

The 24-year-old joins the Falcons until the end of the current campaign and is in contention for Saturday’s RFU Championship clash at Rotherham Titans.

Prior to joining the Saints in the summer of 2011, Cato enjoyed a four year stint with the Men in Black where he picked up an Aviva Premiership winners’ medal and finished the club’s top try scorer in the 2008-09 season.

“I am delighted to join Newcastle Falcons, and this is a good opportunity to get back to playing regular rugby,” said Cato.

“To be a part of a club with the ambition of returning back to the Premiership presents an exciting time ahead for me.

“To assist in realising that goal will be a fulfilling experience,” added the Brighton-born flyer.

Falcons director of rugby Dean Richards said: “Noah is a great addition to the squad, and I am delighted to welcome him to Kingston Park.

“He brings with him both club and international experience which is just what we require going into the play-offs."
