We are delighted to reveal Matty Foster has penned a one-year contract extension.
The 23-year-old joined the Club from St Helens ahead of the 2024 season after spending most of his young career on Merseyside.
He progressed through the scholarship programme at Saints and showed plenty of first-grade promise, but back-to-back ACL injuries limited his chances to just one senior appearance.
After spending some time out on loan at Swinton Lions, the back-rower joined the Reds looking to kickstart his senior career under our talented coaching team.
In 2024, Foster made three appearances before suffering a nasty ankle injury that kept him sidelined for the remainder of the campaign.
However, there have been plenty of promising signs amongst his short cameos and he will be looking to force his way into Head Coach, Paul Rowley’s plans when the team reconvenes for pre-season.
On extending his stay with the Red Devils, Foster has said: “I’m really happy to extend my stay at Salford and grateful to spend another year with these boys.
“I was gutted to cut my season short through injury, but I can’t wait to get back into training and look forward to continuing my development under the coaching staff.
“A big thank you to the supporters for all their backing of the team – I can’t wait to run out in front of you all again next season!”
Head Coach, Paul Rowley has added: “I am really pleased that Matty remains part of the group going into 2025.
“He has been fantastic on and off the field, a great lad to be around and an absolute pleasure to coach.”
Everyone at Salford is delighted Matty is continuing his journey with us, and we look forward to seeing him back in a red shirt very soon.
