Castleford Tigers head coach Craig Lingard is hopeful of bringing in reinforcements in time for next week's home clash with London Broncos.
Lingard has added Hull KR winger Louis Senior to his heavily depleted squad ahead of Friday's trip to Wigan Warriors but does not anticipate further arrivals this week. The 46-year-old has stressed that Castleford are not just targeting short-term fixes. 'The conversations we've had with other clubs are ongoing,' he said. 'Unfortunately, we've not been able to bring anyone else in this week but it's not been through a lack of trying behind the scenes.
'We've had discussions around that but our quota spots are full at the minute so if we brought someone in, we'd have to get someone out,' said Lingard. 'That's reliant on Leigh as well. There are a lot of moving parts, a little bit like buying a house where there's a chain.' Asked if Vete was one of those moving parts, Lingard added: 'He could be. 'We know about Albert's injury issues and he's in a situation now where he's injured again.
