The Hull Daily Mail reports that Hull FC has finalized the signing of Zak Hardaker for the 2025 season.
Hardaker, previously a teammate of Hull’s Director of Rugby, Richie Myler, during their time at Leeds Rhinos, has been secured on a reported two-year deal. Known for his versatility across the back line, though predominantly playing as a centre lately, Hardaker’s contract with his current team is set to expire at the end of this season.
With an illustrious career boasting multiple Super League titles, League Leader’s Shields, Challenge Cups, and a World Club Challenge, Hardaker brings a wealth of experience to Hull FC. Despite interest from Leigh, where he won the Challenge Cup in 2023, Hardaker has opted for a move to Hull.
This signing comes amidst a challenging period for Hull FC, who have struggled in the 2024 season, prompting the dismissal of head coach Tony Smith in April. Myler, now the Director of Rugby, is spearheading efforts to revamp the squad, aiming for an improved performance in the league.
