Dufty agrees new deal with Wolves

Warrington Wolves have announced that Matt Dufty has signed a new contract extension keeping him at the club until the end of the 2026 Betfred Super League season. 

Dufty has started the 2024 season in blistering form with 11 Super League try contributions including six tries and five try-assists. The fullback is also competition's top metre maker clocking 933 metres in total and being named the Smart Energy Metre Maker of the Week on three consecutive occasions.

The 28-year-old's electric start to the year sees him ranked second in the current Steve Prescott MBE Man of Steel standings.

On the new deal, Dufty said: "I'm excited to extend my stay at the club. 

"I'm really enjoying my time here at Warrington and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.  

"Sam [Burgess] and Gleese [Martin Gleeson] have been massive for me this year. They get me involved in the game and the way they've got us attacking this year has really suited me. 

"I think here at Warrington we've got some of the best fans in all of sport. They're passionate and hopefully we can make them proud. 

"I'm starting to feel a lot more mature in my rugby league and I'm excited now for the years to come."

Warrington Wolves Head Coach Sam Burgess added: "It is great to be able to keep Duff for another two seasons.  

"He is an exciting player who has genuine X factor. He is a great bloke away from the game and committed to the team in all aspects. 

"We are all excited to see the next chapter of Matt's career and watch him grow into his role even more over the next few seasons."
