SALFORD RED DEVILS halfback Marc Sneyd has been labelled “the best halfback” in Super League by teammate Kai Morgan.
A product of amateur club, Siddal, Morgan progressed through the youth ranks at Leeds Rhinos and featured in their 2022 Academy Grand Final success over St Helens.
The 20-year-old made the move to Salford for 2024 and spent time on loan at Halifax Panthers, before signing a new one-year deal with the Red Devils for 2025.
Morgan, who is behind Sneyd in the pecking order in the halves, played at hooker in Salford’s remarkable 42-10 thumping of St Helens in a pre-season friendly at the weekend.
The 20-year-old impressed, scoring two tries and being a constant thorn in Saints’ side throughout the afternoon.
And, when sked about his development goals ahead of the new season, Morgan hailed both Sneyd and hooker Joe Mellor: “I think just be patient. I’ve got the best halfback in the game to work under, so it’s nice having Sneydy around.
“Even if I end up at nine again, I’ve got Joe Mellor who absolutely killed it last year. So I’ve got to try and be a bit more like him too.”
Though playing for the Salford Reserves during the 2024 season, also, Morgan will be hoping to knock on the door of Paul Rowley’s first-team squad in 2025.
