One of the fastest-rising earners in the Premiership, the Northampton Saints fly-half is reportedly on around \u00a3600,000 per year after signing a major new deal in late 2025. When his England EPS contract is added, worth an estimated \u00a3150,000, his total annual income is believed to push beyond \u00a3750,000.<\/p>\n
The financial rise has mirrored his progress on the international stage. Selected for the 2025 British & Irish Lions tour of Australia, Smith later made history by becoming the first Lion whose grandfather had also represented the famous side when he played against Argentina in June.<\/p>\n

At the very top of the game, Smith has already built an impressive Lions r\u00e9sum\u00e9. He debuted on the 2021 tour, producing a standout performance against the Stormers, and was again selected for the 2025 tour to Australia, contributing as the Lions secured a 2\u20131 series victory.<\/p>\n
