Salford have signed Wigan youngsters James Greenwood and Oliver Gildart on one-month loan deals.

Prop Greenwood, 23, spent last season on loan at London Broncos, making 16 appearances, and he has featured once for the Warriors this term.

Teenage centre Gildart signed a four-year deal at the DW Stadium prior to the start of the season and has played on dual-registration at Workington.

Warriors Head Coach Shaun Wane said: “After a hard Easter period we’ve come through it ok and have really started to get some numbers back on board lately. I can’t guarantee James and Oliver game-time at the moment so when this opportunity came about we all agreed that this was an excellent chance for them to go and test themselves at Super League level.

 

“They are two good kids who I rate highly. They work hard for me day in day out at training and are a credit to themselves and the Wigan Club, I am sure they will want to impress whilst on loan at Salford and look forward to seeing how they get on.”
