Konrad Hurrell Signs One-Year Extension with St Helens

St Helens Rugby Club has confirmed the re-signing of 33-year-old centre Konrad Hurrell for the 2025 season after he was cleared to return to play following neck surgery that sidelined him for the latter part of the previous season. Hurrell, who has scored 26 tries in 63 appearances for the team since joining from Leeds Rhinos, expressed gratitude for the opportunity to continue his career with the club, stating, 'I am buzzing as well!' His contract extension solidifies St Helens' backline amidst significant off-season changes, with Hurrell taking the number three shirt for the upcoming season. The club had been awaiting medical clearance before making a decision on his future, indicating that they would have explored alternative recruitment options had he not been cleared. Hurrell's return is seen as a boost for the team as they start pre-season training, with all overseas quota spots now filled for the 2025 campaign.
