Josh Jones commits to Salford


Former St Helens player Josh Jones has become the latest player to commit his future to Salford.

The 23-year-old centre or second rower, a member of Saints' 2014 Grand Final-winning team, joined the Red Devils just over a year ago following a brief stint in rugby union with Exeter and has played a key role in their climb towards the top of Betfred Super League.

Jones has now signed a two-year contract extension, becoming the 10th player to extend his stay at the AJ Bell Stadium following coach Ian Watson's decision to sign on for another three years.

"This is a great club and I really enjoy myself here which is so important," Jones said. "The club are clearly on the rise and have come a long way in a short time, why wouldn't you want to be a part of it?"

Watson said: "Josh is another great signing for the club that adds to our stability of creating our team going forward.

"He is young and willing to work on the areas of development we have spoken about within his game but he's proved over the season he's a very dynamic player for us who has all the talent and ability to become an international player in the future."
