Hull FC will have a new-look side at the MKM Stadium next year, with several new signings coming into the team. The Black and Whites will also have a new head coach in John Cartwright, with new backroom staff set to be appointed. Here, Hull Live looks at how the club is shaping up for next year.

Full-Back: Logan Moy, 18
The teenage full-back has impressed in recent weeks, and after the Treigh Stewart deal was withdrawn, as it stands, he is the go-to option.

Wing: Tom Briscoe, 34
The veteran winger was brought back to the club for his experience and professional standards. He will play on into 2025, having signed an 18-month deal several weeks ago.

Centre: Zak Hardaker, 32
The former Grand Final winner has been signed for his competitiveness and experience, coming to Hull on a two-year deal with a reputation as a fierce competitor.

Centre: Ed Chamberlain, 28
The outside back, who can also double up as a back rower, will re-join the club ahead of 2025 after playing two games on loan earlier this year.

Wing: Lewis Martin, 19
The young winger has had a breakout season at the club. He works hard and has never looked out of place at this level, competing with Harvey Barron for a spot on Hull's left edge.

Half-Back: Jake Trueman, 25
The half-back returned from an Achilles rupture last month and is now striving to reach full fitness and form again. 2025 will be the final campaign of his original three-year deal.

Half-Back: Jordan Abdull, 28
The club academy product has signed a three-year deal with the club starting next season and is challenged to lead the side around the field with his supreme kicking game.

Prop: Herman Ese'ese, 29
The former Kiwi international has been Hull's best player this season. He still has two more years to run on his deal.

Hooker: Amir Bourouh, 23
The Salford Red Devils hooker signed a three-year deal with Hull for 2025 and beyond. The club are still looking for a further hooker signing, but it's hoped that Bourouh can be a tidy acquisition in his own right.

Prop: Ligi Sao, 31
The fiery forward still has one year remaining on his deal and will look to produce his best rugby again in the middle of the field.

Back Row: Oliver Holmes, 31
The West Yorkshire native is one of four players Hull have signed from Leigh Leopards for 2025. He will look for some home comforts once again on the right side of the Pennines.

Back Row: Jed Cartwright, 27
The son of new head coach John Cartwright, Jed will hope to give Hull some strike on the edge over the next eighteen months.

Loose Forward: John Asiata, 31
Hull FC announced the signing of Asiata on a marquee contract back in April. He will arrive on a three-year deal, tasked with setting the standards and leading Hull in everything they do.

Interchange: Jordan Lane, 26
The back rower is ever present this season. He's stepped into numerous positions with no fuss and always got on with his job.

Interchange: Brad Fash, 28
The Hull-born forward stepped up to a vice-captain role this year and will hope to really hit the ground running with a full pre-season.

Interchange: Yusuf Aydin, 23
One of four permanent mid-season acquisitions, Aydin's work rate and energy have already proven to be a cut above. He's been a good addition.

Interchange: Jack Ashworth, 28
The forward has worked his socks off in his time on the field this year. He has a good attitude and will look to find his feet again after overcoming a thumb injury.
