Morgan Gannon eyes up new career goal after excellent Leeds Rhinos breakthrough

Leeds Rhinos rookie Morgan Gannon proved he could cut it in Super League last year – now he wants to reach even greater heights at Headingley. The teenage sensation is rated as the best young forward in the British game after making his debut under Richard Agar as a 17-year-old last term.

Gannon has made 12 appearances for the Rhinos this year and scored three tries to underline his rich promise. Despite his tender years, the 18-year-old back-rower is determined to continue proving he can hold his own at the highest level.

Gannon told Rugby League Live: “It’s definitely my goal to be playing week in and week out. The best way I’m going to improve as a player is being in the team and showing what I can do. I’m striving to be in the top seventeen every week.
