Former Super League stalwart Greg Eden has agreed to continue his playing career into 2027, signing a new one-year contract.

Eden, who enjoyed spells in the top flight with Hull KR, Huddersfield, Salford, Bradford, but most notably Castleford, has put pen to paper to remain at Championship side Sheffield Eagles, following a mid-season move in 2026.

The 35-year-old began the latest season at North Wales Crusaders, but departed the side following their financial issues in April. He returned to Super League with the Bulls on a two-game loan in April and May, featuring in defeats to Wigan and Hull KR.

He arrived in South Yorkshire in June, and played 11 games for Craig Lingard’s side between then and the end of the season, scoring eight tries.

Eden has now confirmed he will remain with the Eagles for next season, as he looks to be a key asset under new boss Ryan Sheridan.

The 138-time Super League try-scorer becomes the 19th player contracted to Sheffield next season, with their full roster below:
