Gloucester centre Scott confirms exit
By Peter Hanson
Scotland centre Matt Scott is to leave Gloucester and return to Edinburgh on a two-year deal at the end of the season.
The 27-year-old chalked up 74 appearances for his hometown club before departing for the Premiership ahead of the 2016-17 season.
Scott, who has 39 international caps, is now to return to the Scottish capital and believes he is coming back a more complete player.
"Having spoken with [Edinburgh boss] Richard Cockerill about what he has done so far at the club and his vision for the future, I have no doubt that it will be a fantastic environment moving forward," he told the club's official website.
"I can't wait to get back playing with some of my best mates and pushing to win trophies with my hometown club.
"I've had a great two years at Gloucester and believe I'm a far better player and person from my experiences in the Premiership."

Even with absences we still had the cattle to make the playoffs. As it was, we nearly stumbled our way into the top 8. Which shows just how easy it was to get there. And still we failed. As for Razor, there are many instances of him patching up the Crusaders roster. Numerous. Several players Id never heard of. Also, using AB legend John Afoa was a classic.
But, some of the games we were losing were from schoolboy errors, or downright confusion. Either the players were really dumb (they weren’t) or they were poorly coached. Given the repetitive nature of errors, brain fades, poor decision making, & loose structures, this all lands with the coaching group.
With only six playoff spots now in SR, & Aussie franchises now consolidated to four, 2025 looks like a tight one. We'll have to tough it out under Penney & hope for the best.
