TEENAGER Cameron Scott is looking forward to a new "challenge" after swapping Bradford for Hull FC.

The Wyke junior product, who earned a Bulls Academy contract last year, has penned a full-time deal with the Black and Whites.

Scott became a free agent following Bradford's liquidation and he said: "I'm proud to have signed a first-team contract with Hull FC and I'm looking forward to the new challenge.

"I owe a lot to Bradford for the work they did with me but I felt it was my time to move on. I'm looking forward to the next step with Hull."

Scott, now 17, once scored 50 tries in a season for Wyke under-15s and was watched on numerous occasions by Warrington, Castleford and the Bradford scouting staff before being offered a Bulls scholarship contract.

An Academy deal followed after successfully playing in all the scholarship fixtures in 2015 and 2016 and impressing for the England youth team in their two fixtures in France.

Following the events that surrounded the Bulls over the winter, with the club going into administration and whether or not there would even be a club in Bradford, several other professional outfits were looking to sign Scott.

After weighing up all the options, he reluctantly decided that to enhance his chances of living a rugby league life it would be better to leave his home-town club and sign for Hull.

Scott has signed a three-year professional contract with a view to initially training with the Hull squad and then playing matches with their dual-registration team Doncaster.

Hull boss Lee Radford admits he is looking forward to coaching the "talented" new signing, who will work predominantly with under-23 boss Richard Horne, saying he has potential and the right attitude.

"Cameron Scott is a young outside back and he's very talented, from what I've seen," said Radford.

"He comes across as a really nice kid and it was a pleasure dealing with him in terms of the recruitment.

"He'll be training with us full-time and will be playing in the reserves under Richard Horne. He has a chance to learn his trade and apply himself there.

"With Bradford being liquidated and then reformed, he became a free agent. He's a player I'm looking forward to coaching."
