Matty Costello: St Helens confirm centre's departure

Matty Costello played eight times and scored two tries in Saints' most recent Grand Final-winning season

Centre Matty Costello will leave St Helens next year after nine years with the club.

The 22-year-old began as an academy player at Saints and went on to make his first-team debut in 2018.

He helped St Helens reach successive Super League Grand Finals in 2019 and 2020, but did not feature in either title-deciding win.

"Whilst it will be hard leaving, I'm excited and ready for a new challenge, " Costello told the club website.
