Zak Hardaker: Leigh Leopards centre to join Hull FC in 2025

Hull FC have signed decorated centre Zak Hardaker on a two-year deal from the 2025 Super League season onwards.

The 32-year-old joins the Black & Whites from Leigh Leopards, who he signed for in 2023, helping them to win the Challenge Cup in the same year.

The former England and Great Britain international has won trophies with every Super League team he has been a part of since his debut 14 years ago.

He has scored 114 tries and more than 1,100 points for clubs including Featherstone, Castleford, Leeds, Wigan and Leigh.

“Zak has achieved almost everything there is to achieve in the sport – he is a winner, and we’re hoping he can become one of our key figures over the next couple of years,” said Hull FC’s director of rugby Richie Myler.

“With over 360 senior appearances under his belt, we’re hoping that some of his experiences in the game and the knowledge he has acquired can rub off on some of our talented young outside backs.”
