Leigh Leopards have signed winger AJ Towse from Championship side York Knights ahead of the 2025 season.

The 21-year-old scored 20 tries for York across 34 games of the 2024 season and was nominated for the Championship Young Player of the Year award.

β€œAJ is only 21 but has really impressed at York over the past two seasons," Leigh head of rugby Chris Chester said.

β€œHe is already a proven try-scorer, and we are expecting big things of him at Leigh Leopards in 2025.”
