Leigh Leopards forward Matty Davis has signed a two-year contract extension while full-back Gareth O'Brien has agreed a fresh one-year deal.

Davis, 27, helped Leigh to victory in the Challenge Cup final last year and has played every game this season.

Meanwhile, 32-year-old O'Brien joined Leigh from Castleford and went on to win the Challenge Cup in his first season with the club.

鈥淚鈥檓 buzzing to have signed the two-year extension with the club. It was always my goal to extend, especially with the year we had last season," Davis said.

鈥淲ith the quality of the staff and players we have at our disposal, it鈥檚 such a close-knit group. So I wanted to keep playing with these lads and for the club."

O'Brien came through Warrington's academy and went on to make 62 appearances for the club before going on to join Salford. Further spells with Toronto and Castleford followed before his move to Leigh from 2023.

He added: 鈥淚鈥檓 really happy to be staying another year and now that it鈥檚 all sorted, I鈥檓 really focused on getting back fit and hopefully helping to contribute to winning some games."
