Club Statement - Oliver Wilson.

Forward Oliver Wilson has completed a move to Wigan for a substantial undisclosed fee.

The club made every effort to keep Oliver, who we regarded as one of our most important players, however he expressed a desire to explore a move elsewhere.

Oliver, who joined the club from Bradford Bulls in 2019, has gone on to make 114 appearances for this club, scoring two tries in that time.

One of our most consistent forwards, he was rewarded with a call up and an appearance to the mens England team in 2024, where he featured in the victory over France in Toulouse.

Wilson leaves the club with the best wishes of everyone connected to the Giants, with his contribution to the club not unnoticed during his six year tenure as a Giant, where he consistently went from strength to strength.

In light of this move, the club has already moved earlier to strengthen our forward pack with the signings of Chris Patolo, Asher O'Donnell and Mathieu Cozza, three exciting young signings who will blossom under the leadership of Luke Robinson, Leroy Cudjoe and Liam Finn.

Andy Kelly commented below.

"Oliver Wilson was a player we believed would be the cornerstone of our pack for many years to come.

"However, Oliver feels his ambition is best served at another club and despite the disappointment of losing Oliver, we thank him for his service and wish him well in the future."
