Chris Ashton leaves Warriors

Former England wing Chris Ashton has left Warriors with immediate effect by mutual consent.

Ashton arrived at Sixways from Harlequins 11 months ago but calf and knee injuries have prevented him from playing for Warriors this season.

The daily commute from his home in Northampton had also proved challenging so the club and Ashton have agreed a release from his contract which was due to expire at the end of this season.
