Wigan executive director Kris Radlinski has revealed there will be more signings within the next couple of weeks.

On Thursday, the Warriors confirmed the signings of Castleford prop Mitch Clark and Salford centre Jake Bibby on deals from 2020.

Six current players also committed their futures to the club on the same day – Tony Clubb, Joe Burgess, Chris Hankinson, Ollie Partington, Morgan Smithies and Jack Wells.

Speaking after the announcements on Thursday, Radlinski commented: “Recruitment and retention is a year-long process but it is at this time of year that everything starts to take shape for the following year.

“We need to finalise our coaching team for 2020 and more announcements on signings are coming very soon.

“This has been a really hectic period as we are just a few weeks away from moving into our new HQ at Robin Park.

“It’s a development that we are really proud of and we will be announcing opportunities for our fans to look around very soon.”
