Huddersfield Giants have moves to secure the future of one of their academy prospects but they have also seen another of their young talents leave on a permanent basis.<\/p>\n
Forward Jacob Algar, who has two first team appearances to date, has inked a new three-year deal with the young forward committing his future to the Giants having come through the system at Huddersfield.<\/p>\n
Algar signed a first-team contract last April with that two-year deal set to run from December 1st 2025 through to the end of the 2027 season, however, he\u2019s now signed this three-year deal that keeps him at the club until the end of 2029.<\/p>\n
He played in the Challenge Cup defeat to Hull KR earlier in the season but has been on loan with Dewsbury Rams of late, featuring for the Championship club in their last three matches.<\/p>\n
On his new deal, Algar said: \u201cI\u2019m really excited to stay, i\u2019m so happy the deal is signed and sorted now and i\u2019m ready to work hard and improve myself over the next three years.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I\u2019ve been watching myself back on the clips I can see how much i\u2019ve improved here but there\u2019s still a lot of work to be done, thankful to Finny and Leroy and all the staff here for their work on improving my game and believing in me.\u201d<\/p>\n
