Elliot Daly (born 8 October 1992) is an English rugby union player who plays for Saracens in the Gallagher Premiership and for England.
Club career
Daly played his early rugby at Beckenham from age five before moving to Dorking in 2006, where he spent three years. He was educated at Cumnor House School and Whitgift School, after which he joined Wasps' Elite Player Development Squad before progressing to the Academy. He is nicknamed 'Briefcase' after he turned up at his first Wasps training session in his Whitgift School uniform carrying a briefcase.
He made his debut at centre against Exeter Chiefs in the Anglo-Welsh Cup in November 2010 whilst still a pupil at Whitgift and in the process became the second-youngest player to represent the club. His first Premiership game followed later that month against Bath Rugby and he finished the 2010–11 season with six appearances which came at centre, full-back and on the wing.
Daly was an established member of Wasps'Rugby side having featured in over 150 Premiership matches for the side. His speed and long range kicking abilities alongside his ability to see space is among what made him such a stand-out player and he played a vital role for wasps whether it is at 13,11 or 15.
On 4 February 2019, Daly agreed to leave Wasps to join Premiership rivals Saracens prior to the 2019–20 season.
