Leeds Rhinos winger Liam Tindall set for exit as Super League rival swoop

Liam Tindall will leave Leeds Rhinos at the end of the season. Rohan Smith has confirmed the winger, who is off-contract at the end of the season, has turned down a deal at the club.

Hull FC is expected to be his next destination, with the youngster understood to have signed a multi-year deal with the club. It is the second player all but confirmed to be leaving the club, with forward Sam Walters also turning down a deal. He is set to sign for Wigan Warriors.

"I'm not quite sure why or how things intend to be announced but we made an offer that hasn't been accepted and I believe another one has," Smith said when asked on Tindall's future. "That's where it's at."
