Greig Tonks has agreed to leave Northampton Saints and join Edinburgh in the summer.

The 22-year-old revealed that Edinburgh's attacking style was a major factor behind his decision to move to Scotland.

"Edinburgh play really good, attacking style of running rugby. It's something I noticed when I played against them last season," said Tonks.

"They have the ability to take teams apart at speed and being part of that is something I'm very excited about.

"To play at Murrayfield will also be fantastic. It's an impressive international arena with incredible training facilities so this move presents a pretty awesome opportunity for me to develop as a player and be part of something special with Edinburgh."

Tonks has scored seven tries for the Saints this season.
