Keighley sign former Hull youngster Charlie Graham
Keighley have signed former Hull outside back Charlie Graham on a one-year deal ahead of the 2021 League 1 season.
The youngster, who can play wing or centre, didn’t make a first team appearance for Super League side Hull but featured for the Black and Whites in pre-season friendlies. He will link up with Keighley for 2021.
Keighley coach Rhys Lovegrove said: “I was lucky enough to play rugby union with Charlie in 2018 at Wharfedale.
“Charlie has been involved in a top organisation for the past three years at Hull FC and that has aided his development of a player in the sport of rugby league.
“Not only is he young, he is strong, athletic, but most importantly, he is hungry and wants to prove himself.
“The Cougars are the perfect platform for him to do that and when Charlie became available, I moved quickly to secure his services and I believe he is a great acquisition for the club.
“Charlie is a player that will add quality to the side on the field, and the club off it too.”
