Warrington Wolves youngster Dan Okoro has made a switch to Championship side London Broncos for the remainder of the season following the termination of his loan at Castleford Tigers. 

The 22-year-old featured eight times for Cas this season, but had found himself dropped into the reserves in recent weeks, and was allowed to depart The Jungle with the Super League side announcing his exit earlier today.

Now, he joins London with immediate effect on a deal until the end of the current campaign, and will be available to make his debut for Mike Eccles’ side away against Featherstone Rovers this weekend.

Okoro – whose contract at Warrington runs until the end of 2027 – has previously played in the Championship for Newcastle Thunder, Swinton Lions and Bradford Bulls: amassing 13 appearances in the second tier altogether.

A two-time Nigeria international having been born in Africa but moved to England at a young age, the forward has a total of 32 appearances on his CV at club level having also donned a shirt for Hunslet.

The Milford ARLFC junior’s one senior try to date came in Bradford colours against Swinton Lions back in May 2024.

London announced Okoro’s arrival on Thursday evening, and he becomes the latest Super League loanee to head to the capital this term following the likes of Jack Farrimond, Louix Gorman, Alfie Johnson and Kian McDermott.
