Excellent news
Junior Nsemba has signed a new four-year deal with the Club.
The 19-year-old has made 13 appearances in 2023.
“Every time I put the badge on it’s my proudest moment knowing I am representing such a great club,” says Nsemba.
Wigan Warriors are delighted to announce that Junior Nsemba has signed a new four-year deal with the club seeing him contracted until the end of the 2027 season.
While still eligible to play for the Academy, the 19-year-old made his debut for the Warriors against Hull KR in August 2022 – his only appearance last year – but the 6’5” forward has made 13 appearances for Matt Peet’s side in 2023, in which he scored his first try for the Club in the Challenge Cup victory over Leeds Rhinos at Headingley in May.
On signing the long-term deal, Nsemba said: “Every time I put the badge on it’s my proudest moment knowing I am representing such a great Club, and I’m grateful for being able to stay here for another four years.
“I can’t wait to continue the journey in my hometown with my family and friends and especially the fans because of the huge support they show week in, week out.
“I’d like to thank Matt, Kris Radlinski and Ian for putting their trust in me and giving me this opportunity.”
Matt Peet said: “We are all delighted that Junior will be with us for at least four more years, he is an outstanding young man and a talented player.
“I’m really looking forward to helping him develop on and off the field. He is someone who we have very high expectations for.”

Great news. He looks to have that bit extra that could make him an excellent player. He's still young but the squad for next season should allow us to feed him into the first team without having to overplay him. Congratulations to Junior, well done to the club.

No transfer fee as Wakefield were relegated so all contracts were null and void. His agent was asking for a higher salary than Wigan were prepared to pay.
