Robins capture Arthur Mourgue on three and a half year deal with immediate effect

Hull KR are delighted to confirm the signing of Arthur Mourgue on a three-and-a-half-year deal with immediate effect, securing the fullback until at least the end of the 2028 Betfred Super League season.

The 25-year-old French International joins the Robins from Catalans Dragons as one of Super League’s most exciting talents. Known for his pace, elusive footwork, and playmaking ability.

Mourgue has been a standout performer for Catalans Dragons since making his debut in 2018, playing a key role in their 2021 League Leaders' Shield-winning campaign and the Dragons’ maiden Grand Final appearance.

Born in France, Mourgue progressed through Catalans’ Academy before breaking into the first team. Equally adept at playing fullback, halfback, or hooker, he adds invaluable versatility and more attacking options to Willie Peters’ squad.

Hull KR Head Coach, Willie Peters gave his reaction to Mourgue joining the Robins: “We’re delighted for Arthur to join Hull KR. His (Arthur’s) strength is his running game. We’re looking to further develop that.

“Arthur's other strength is his pace and he can play multiple positions. Arthur is an 80% plus goal kicker which will certainly help us in the short-term.

This is a major move for Arthur and his partner to come from their home country to England. However, it shows the commitment they are both making to want to be a part of the Hull KR family.”
