London Broncos re-sign Scotland international Alex Walker
Scotland international Alex Walker has returned to London Broncos on a deal until the end of the Championship season.
The 26-year-old full-back will go straight into Jermaine Coleman’s squad for this weekend’s fixture against Bradford.
Walker came through the ranks at the Broncos, scoring 41 tries in 102 appearances between 2014-19.
His impressive performances for London saw him earn a Super League deal with Wakefield in 2020. However, he found chances limited at Trinity, playing just 10 games over two seasons. He also enjoyed a short spell on loan in the Championship with Featherstone last season.
The Essex-born full-back joined Championship club Halifax on trial ahead of this season but nothing materialised. He has now re-joined part-time London for the rest of the season.

Walker qualifies to play for Scotland via the family heritage rule. He has won six caps for Scotland since making his international debut in 2015.
He will be hoping to play in his second World Cup this autumn, which is hosted in England.
