KEANAN BRAND TO CONTINUE WITH VIKINGS ON SEASON LONG LOAN

Widnes Vikings are pleased to announce that Keanan Brand’s loan with the club has been extended for the remainder of the season.

Having initially rejoined the club on a one-month loan, he will now be eligible for the remainder of the 2024 campaign.

Leigh Leopards hold a recall clause to bring Keanan back should they need him, as was the case with Louis Brogan’s loan.

Head Coach Allan Coleman said: “He’s a player that excites us and most importantly he loves playing for Widnes.

“I think in the last few weeks we’ve seen him come into his own, so it is a massive bonus for us to get Keanan on a season-long loan from Leigh.”
