Hull FC prop Ligi Sao will miss the rest of the 2025 Super League season with a serious knee injury.

The 32-year-old was injured during Hull’s defeat by Wigan Warriors on Friday and is now sidelined for the rest of the campaign, just two league games into the season.

Head coach John Cartwright said that following surgery this week, Sao will be out for a minimum of nine months.

“I’m really disappointed for him – that hurt us the other night as he’s been very good for the club for a long period of time,” Cartwright told BBC Radio Humberside.

“He’s tough, he’s a good leader. He’s going to be sorely missed. It’s very unfortunate for him and the team but that’s footy so we’ve just got to soldier on.”
