St Helens prop Dan Norman will be heading to Super League side Salford on an initial one-week loan deal.
Norman signed on a two year deal from London Broncos in December 2020 and has only featured once for Saints – in a short stint against Hull FC in the Challenge Cup semi-final as he came on for the final few minutes.
But the 6ft-5in 23-year-old will join up with former Saints assistant, Richard Marshall’s Salford and is in-line to feature against Saints Challenge Cup final opponents, Castleford Tigers on Sunday after the Salford club was hit with a COVID outbreak.
The loan will be initially for one week, but it will be renewed on a week-by-week basis.
