Bradford Bulls have signed former Huddersfield Giants and Salford Red Devils centre Esan Marsters on a three-year deal.<\/p>\n

The 29-year-old makes his return to West Yorkshire having previously made 43 appearances for Huddersfield in 2023 and 2024.<\/p>\n

Masters, who played in the NRL with Wests Tigers, North Queensland Cowboys and Gold Coast Titans, joined Salford in 2025 and made 20 appearances for the beleaguered club.<\/p>\n

“For myself personally, I want to go out there and do my best for the team especially after the year that I had at Salford,” he told Bradford’s website., external<\/a><\/p>\n

“As a collective, we want to make this club proud and bring them to where they were before, I’m really looking forward to it.”<\/p>\n

Marsters will now reunite with former Salford team-mates Jayden Nikorima, Loghan Lewis, Joe Mellor and Ethan Ryan as well as former assistant coach Kurt Haggerty who is now head coach at the Bulls.<\/a><\/p>\n

“Esan is a player that has been chased by numerous Super League clubs and NRL clubs, so to actually get him over the line to play for the Bulls is a massive acquisition for us,” Haggerty said.<\/p>\n

“He’s talented, he’s got unbelievable footwork and his defence is very, very solid, he’s a player that will certainly excite the Bradford fans.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bradford Bulls have signed former Huddersfield Giants and Salford Red Devils centre Esan Marsters on a three-year deal.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":300501,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[5903,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-300500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-rugby","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=300500"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300500\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/300501"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=300500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=300500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=300500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
