Bradford Bulls have announced that the prolific Kieran Gill has signed a new three-year deal with the club.
The 27-year-old has scored 31 tries in 46 appearances since arriving at Odsal Stadium prior to the start of the 2022 season and quickly became a fans’ favourite with his clinical performances.
The former Thunder man has already registered 13 tries so far this year, with the Bulls currently five games unbeaten and occupying a play-off position in the Betfred Championship.
Gill admits it was an easy decision to extend his time in the red, amber and black – while he was also keen to pay tribute to the Bradford supporters.
“I am over the moon to extend my stay for another three years,” said Gill.
“The fans made it an easy choice with how welcoming they have been, and to hear my name week in, week out, it’s what I love.
“It was an easy decision after speaking with (Bulls’ chief executive officer) Jason Hirst as I have made it a home for me and my family.
“I am delighted to keep succeeding and chasing our dreams as a club and individually.”
Hirst himself added: “Today’s news is undoubtedly great for our fans and club alike.
“It also recognises and rewards Kieran for his impressive performances these last two seasons and gives him reassurance and security, not only for himself, but also his young family.
“Three-year deals aren’t commonplace in rugby league, particularly outside of Super League, so it’s a clear and real statement of intent that we’re ambitiously and sustainably building for the future, not just the short-term.
“The fact that the deal was agreed very quickly shows the mutual respect and appreciation that exists between Kieran and the club.
“This will allow Kieran to further improve and develop to the benefit of player, team and club.”
