Jack Littlejohn – “I’ve only heard good things about the Club”
Yesterday the Red Devils confirmed the signing of half-backย Jack Littejohn and the Australian has given his initial thoughts on signing for Salford.
Littlejohn, who arrives on Monday morning, said: โIโm really looking forward to getting started and meeting everyone around the place. Iโve only heard good things about the Club and the fans so I canโt wait.
โI know a little bit about Super League. I love my footy on TV back home so Iโll watch it when I can Iโve see a few games and I have a couple of mates who play over here so itโs always good to watch them.
โObviously, I played a bit with Lama Tasi at the Sydney Roosters and also played alongside big Luke Burgess at Manly in 2015 so itโll be good to see a few familiar faces when I arrive.
โI think I was ready for a change and excited about starting a new challenge so what bigger challenge is there than moving to the other side of the world to play footy.
โLike I said I canโt wait to get started with Salford and meet the all my teammates, the staff and the fans.”
