Signed for the Castleford Tigers back in 2020, Danny Richardson was meant to spearhead this West Yorkshire side to glory under Daryl Powell.
In 2018, he was the leading points scorer in Super League as St Helens failed to make it to the Grand Final after finishing top that year, but was axed by then head coach Justin Holbrook.
Richardson spent 2019 on the periphery at the Totally Wicked Stadium, even playing six games on loan at Leigh Centurions before ending his hell with a three-year deal at the Jungle.
Wind the clock forward to 2022 and it hasn’t really worked out for the halfback with spells of good and bad form whilst a serious injury at the start of this season has hampered his ability to potentially win a new contract under new boss Lee Radford.
With speculation mounting that the Tigers are heading into the market for Wakefield Trinity halfback Jacob Miller, it does leave a question mark as to where Richardson’s future may lie, though if Jake Trueman’s exit is to be expected then that could be the definite swap.
The 25-year-old was linked with a move to Wigan Warriors earlier in the year but nothing came of it, whilst it was reported that Richardson had been offered to other clubs at the end of 2021.
That being said, it is obvious that the halfback is low on confidence, he just needs somewhere to bring that back out of him.
