Wakefield Trinity have begun building a Super League side for 2025 with the signing of England forward Mike McMeeken on a long-term deal.
The Catalans Dragons man has signed from next year until the end of 2028. The 29-year old previously played under Trinity boss Daryl Powell at Castleford Tigers after beginning his career with London Broncos. McMeeken, who has nine England caps, told Trinity’s website: “I am thrilled to be joining this new-look Wakefield team in 2025. From having a good conversation with Powelly about the direction the club is going in, it’s a journey I was extremely keen to be a part of.
I’m really excited for this new challenge and building something special at this club with so much history.” Powell described McMeeken’s signing as “a statement of intent from the club”. He said: “He is one of the best professionals I have ever worked with and has grown even more his time in Catalans as a player and as a leader. He is an unbelievable player to build a team around and, with the pack we are building at the club, his addition is an outstanding piece of recruitment.
