Widnes Vikings are pleased to reveal our newest addition ahead of the 2025 season, as outside back, Adam Jones arrives at the DCBL Stadium from Wigan Warriors.
Jones, 21, arrives at the club on a one-year deal having featured primarily for Wigan Reserves over the last couple of seasons. He has also made first-team appearances on loan for York, Cornwall, and Rochdale over the last three seasons.
Jones missed much of the 2024 season with a knee injury but is back and eager to make his mark with the Vikings in 2025.
He said: “I’m really excited to have signed with such a great club with lots of history.
“After speaking to Allan it felt like the perfect move for me to develop my game and challenge myself in the championship after a year out with a serious knee injury.
“I’m hoping to bring passion and a good work ethic to the team and when I get the chance to play, I’ll always put my best foot forward to improve the team in any way I can.
He added: “The team looks strong from 1-17 and that motivates me to add competition for places.
“The performances from the team last year were a big factor in me signing here, getting to the playoffs was massive and I’m determined to help the team do even better next season.
“I can’t wait to get started in pre-season and to put my hard work into practice when the season starts.”
Head Coach Allan Coleman said: “Adam is a good young player who comes in from Wigan Warriors. I know him well and the potential he has got is really exciting.
“He’s energetic and wants to play at a high level. Which is exactly the kind of player I want at Widnes.
“He’ll bring a lot of enthusiasm to the group and I’m looking forward to seeing the kind of player he can turn into.”
Everyone at the club is eager to see Adam in action in 2025!
Adam is available to sponsor for 2025, to enquire please email commercial@widnesvikings.co.uk or call 0151 495 2250.
