In a move that is sure to fire up the Wigan Warriors faithful, Bevan French has committed to the club for the long haul by signing a juicy four-year contract extension.

The 28-year-old speedster, who had been rumored to be eyeing a return Down Under, has officially put those speculations to rest.

Having donned the cherry and white jersey since the middle of the 2019 season, French has become a key player for Wigan, playing a crucial role in their recent triumphs, including lifting the 2022 Betfred Challenge Cup and clinching last year's Grand Final.

A true warrior on the pitch, French's performances have not gone unnoticed, with the Man of Steel title and a standout showing against the Penrith Panthers in the World Club Challenge under his belt.

"As they say in the game, it's all about the team and striving for success together," French commented on his decision to stay put.

With his sights set on even greater achievements, the Wigan faithful can rest easy knowing that their star player is here to stay.

Get ready to witness French's lightning speed and crafty footwork on the field as Wigan takes on the Leigh Leopards in the Super League showdown on Sky Sports this Thursday.
