Widnes Vikings are pleased to announce that Leigh Leopards winger, AJ Towse, has joined the club on loan for the remainder of the season.
Towse joined the Leopards ahead of 2025, having made the switch to Super League following a successful four-year spell with hometown club York in the Championship.
AJ will be available for selection ahead of this Sunday’s trip to Bartercard Odsal Stadium to take on Bradford Bulls. As with all season-long loans, Leigh will hold a recall clause.
Head Coach Allan Coleman said, “He obviously played for York in the Championship last season. A very good player, he’s tall, rangy, and athletic, which is something we’ll need, especially with Ryan Ince injured at the moment.
“We’re going up against two of the biggest wingers in the Championship this weekend against Bradford, and they love to put kicks up to them in the corner, so it’ll be really good to have him in to defend against that.
“He’s someone we admire and we’ve been after him for some time, so a big thanks to Leigh for letting us have him.”
Welcome to the Vikings AJ!
