SAM HALL hopes to take his game to the next level with Toulouse Olympique.
The forward will leave Castleford Tigers at the end of the season to join the French club on a two-year contract.
Hall, 24, is out of contract and won’t be kept on despite having his greatest involvement in a Castleford shirt this year, playing 20 times.
That’s taken him to 72 club appearances since the academy graduate made his first-team debut in 2020.
Toulouse are currently one place above the Tigers in ninth, having won nine matches on their return to Super League under coach Sylvain Houles, and Hall says it will be a great place to be.
“It is a great opportunity for my personal development and for my young family,” he said.
“After talking to Sylvain and Cédric (Garcia, sporting director), I noticed that the vision and orientation of the club perfectly matched my aspirations, and I am delighted to be part of it.
“I look forward to getting to work and contributing to the success of the team.”
Houles said: “We are delighted with Sam’s signing for the next two seasons because he is a player who really meets all our expectations.
“We are really looking forward to welcoming him and his family to Toulouse.”
