Castleford Tigers chief executive Richard Wright says more big name signings are in the pipeline following last week's unveiling of England International centre Michael Shenton as the club's first new recruit for next season.

Wright believes the signing of Shenton and the announcements to follow underline the Tigers' ambitions moving forward:

"The signing of Michael Shenton is the first of a number of quality recruits we have planned for next season."

"It is great that Michael has bought in to coming back to the Tigers despite plenty of other options on the table. For Michael to commit what will most likely be his best years to the club is a real sign that he has totally bought in to our ambitions for the future."
Regarding other new signings, Wright added:

"The aim is to secure an exciting long term backbone of a squad that will drive the club forward in the years ahead.

"We have agreed terms with another two players and are well down the track with a further two players that we believe will strengthen the squad considerably for next season."
