Oldham have signed Daniel Igbinedion from Dewsbury for their return to the Championship.

Igbinedion, 24, came through the youth set up at London Broncos before playing 21 games at Oxford where he attracted the attention of Castleford.

He’s had spells at Featherstone and Sheffield amongst making more than 50 appearances for Dewsbury.

Coach Matt Diskin said: “He’s a good addition to the squad.

“He’s a big, strong lad, very athletic and a player who can give us additional power and go-forward. He’s also got a good off-load.

“He’s got lots of Championship experience and I see him as a middle-channel man, who will complement the talents of our other forwards.”
