How Hull FC's squad is shaping up for 2025 after departures confirmed and signings made
Hull FC have confirmed the departures of 14 players this Wednesday afternoon as Richie Myler's Airlie Birds shakeup continues. The club's director of rugby has been hard at work since arriving in April, with nine players also leaving the club mid-season.
To replace them, a plethora of signings have been made, with nine additions set to join the squad for pre-season this November. Furthermore, Hull are still to confirm their academy promotions from this year's under-18s squad. Hull Live has already reported first-team deals for Ryan Westerman, Roman Dawson (both centre), and Will Hutchinson (hooker), with more set to be confirmed later this month.
The club are also open to further recruitment in the off-season, while some players could still depart before the conclusion of the calendar year. However, as it stands, Hull have an official squad of 33 players for the 2025 season. Here's a rundown of how they are shaping up.
