FORMER Leeds Rhinos man Levi Edwards is attracting Super League interest as St Helens head coach Paul Wellens admits his interest in signing the 21-year-old, who is currently plying his trade with York Knights.
Though Edwards suffered a serious ACL injury that ruled him out for much of 2023 and 2024, the back-rower/centre has returned to action in 2025, impressing greatly.
And it seems that the ex-Leeds man, who never made a first-team appearance for the Headingley outfit, has got a fan in Wellens.
“He’s someone that we had a conversation about,” Wellens revealed in his pre-match press conference ahead of the weekend’s Challenge Cup clash with Warrington Wolves.
“He’s a talented young player who has only just come back from a lengthy injury, and it’s great for him, before recent weeks, to start to string some games together.
“We’ve watched a number of those games, including the game against our dual-registration club Halifax.
“There’s a lot to like about him as a player, but no further conversations have taken place other than that.
“It’s not ruled in, or ruled out. He is a player that has been of interest, but we’ll see where things are down the track.”
