Bradford sign Widnes full-back Connell

Bradford Bulls have signed Widnes Vikings full-back Nathan Connell on a two-year deal from the start of the 2027 season.

The 23-year-old started his career with Salford, where he worked under Bulls head coach Kurt Haggerty, and has scored 20 tries in 26 appearances for the second-tier side this year.

“I’m buzzing to get back into Super League, which was obviously my goal,” he told the club website.

“The year at Widnes has been great personally and collectively as a team but I want to get back into that full-time environment, really challenge myself and push myself out of my comfort zone to develop even more as a player.”
