Ultimately, Kai’s desire to go to the NRL was the determining factor.“Kai is committed to Wigan for the 2023 season before leaving for Australia at the end of the year. He is an impressive young man who has been a pleasure to work with over the past few years.“We expect a big year from Kai and then we will wish him well on his new adventure.”
