Huddersfield's Matty English joins York Knights on loan after injury-hit year and contract exit

York Knights signed prop Matty English on loan from Huddersfield on 29 July 2026. The 28-year-old, a Giants academy product with 157 appearances across ten seasons, was not offered a new deal and faced a lengthy injury layoff in March. He now seeks regular game time to attract suitors before his contract expires at season's end.
