Two clubs likely to sign Warrington Wolves star ahead of the new season

Sam Kasiano of the Warrington Wolves

Salford Red Devils and Wakefield Trinity are the two likely destinations for Sam Kasiano following his reported release from Warrington Wolves.

According to Rugby League Live, despite being contracted until the end of the 2024 season, the former Catalans Dragons prop has been released ahead of the 2024 season as Sam Burgess looks to use the quota spot on boosting his squad.

But what of Kasiano? Well one likely destination is following the man who signed him at Warrington, Daryl Powell, to Wakefield Trinity.

The club have money to spend and vacant spots in their squad to utilise on a prop as Daryl Powell revealed after their Boxing Day defeat to Leeds Rhinos.

But Salford Red Devils might be the more likely destination. The club have a quota spot to use following the exit of Ken Sio and are in the market for a prop ahead of 2024.

The club have added a fair few names to their squad ahead of the new season including young and promising Kai Morgan.

Kai Morgan is excited for his new challenge at Salford Red Devils. The halfback joins the club after successfully progressing through the academy set-up at Leeds Rhinos and will be part of Paul Rowley’s first-team squad during pre-season.

Making the step-up to reserve grade in 2023, Morgan was part of the Rhinos side who beat Salford on the Community Field in mid-July – a game where Red Devils head coach Paul Rowley was in attendance.

Speaking exclusively to the club’s YouTube channel, the 19-year-old has revealed that a conversation held that day certainly changed his thinking.

“Rowls has been good with me,” he said, “I actually spoke to him when I played against the reserves here and he definitely intrigued me to join the club.

“All the lads that I’ve spoken to have said he’s a great bloke, so I can’t wait to work under him!”

It’s a big step-up for Morgan, who has yet to make a senior appearance in his fledgling career. He says being a part of the first-team environment will be a huge boost for his game and he can’t wait to get into pre-season training with the senior players.

“It’s exciting. It’s definitely a challenge for me and I can’t wait to test myself,” Morgan continued.

“I really like the way they play, so hopefully my game can add to that.

“Being in a full-time environment. I’m still only 19, so I’ve got a long way to go, but it’s a big test for me. I need all I can out of pre-season and hopefully learn from the better players.”
