Warrington Wolves have snapped up St Helens forward Kyle Amor on loan.
The hugely experienced prop forward bolsters Wire’s forwards options as we enter the second part of the Betfred Super League campaign.
The 34-year-old Cumbrian has enjoyed plenty of success during his career to date with four Grand Finals, three League Leaders Shields and a Challenge Cup Final win to his name.
Amor has made over 300 career appearances to date and will be eligible to make his debut for the Wire next Friday night at The Halliwell Jones Stadium against Leeds Rhinos.
The prop will wear shirt number 32 for the Wire.
Speaking on the loan move, Kyle Amor said: “To get back playing is a big thing for me.
“I wasn’t perhaps getting enough game time as I would have liked to at Saints and when I got a phone call from Warrington about the opportunity and I could feel myself getting excited again.
“The Halliwell Jones Stadium has always been one of my favourite places to play at. When I’ve played here for Saints the place has been bouncing. It’ll be great to get out there now, earn the respect of the Warrington fans and feel the buzz around the place.
“There’s an opportunity to get into that top six and then who know what can happen from there. It’s about a game at a time starting next week against Leeds. It’s up to us now to kick on and fulfil that potential. It’s a challenge and something I’m looking forward to.”
Head Coach Daryl Powell added: “We have been looking to strengthen our front-row options after allowing Rob Butler to leave for Wakefield and I believe Kyle is a quality signing for us midway through the season.
“He will add depth and experience to our squad and I also expect key leadership skills to come from his time at St Helens.
“I’m looking for us to really grow over the second half of the season and Kyle has a perfect opportunity to support us in doing that.”
