Feki joins Featherstone on loan

Castleford Tigers winger Sosaia Feki has joined Featherstone Rovers on an initial two-week loan.

The Tigers have a recall option in place following the fortnight period, after which the loan can continue week by week, subject to the two clubs’ agreement.

Since joining Castleford from Cronulla Sharks for the 2020 season, Sosaia has had horrendous luck with injuries that have limited him to just one Super League appearance for the Fords so far, but he has been working hard on getting back to match fitness.

In his first taste of match action for around twenty months, Feki featured in the Tigers’ Reserves draw away against Salford Red Devils at the end of April. In a further boost, he also scored on his return but was limited on the number of minutes he played in that fixture.

As the winger looks to get back to 100%, the loan move to Featherstone will offer him the opportunity to get valuable match minutes in the Betfred Championship ahead of consideration for his long-awaited return to Super League action with Castleford Tigers.
