\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"\"\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

Former Hull KR and Super League winger, Kieran Dixon, has signed for Salford RLFC in the Championship, making a local switch.<\/p>\n

Dixon was released by Oldham earlier this week, and his new club has now been confirmed, as he links up with Ryan Brierley\u2019s side.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old becomes the latest permanent signing for the newly-formed phoenix club, who continue to strengthen their squad with more and more permanent deals as opposed to loan and trial contracts.<\/p>\n

The speedster has made 104 appearances in Super League, with the last of those coming for London Broncos in 2019.<\/p>\n

In total, he has played over 270 career games, and has scored just short of 1700 career points.<\/p>\n

Dixon has already featured for Salford this year, joining for one game in their 29-28 win over Batley Bulldogs back in April.<\/p>\n

Commenting on his move, the 2015 Challenge Cup Finalist said:\u00a0 \u201cIt feels good to sign for the club.<\/p>\n

\u201cI obviously got to play alongside Ryan when we were both at Oldham and got on well with him there.<\/p>\n

\u201c[I] also played with Mason back when we were both playing for London Broncos.<\/p>\n

\u201c[It] feels good to be able to link back up with them two, even though they\u2019re in different positions now.\u201d<\/p>\n
