Liam Harris is convinced York Knights are on the verge of "something special" after signing a new two-year deal.

The former Hull KR and Hull FC half-back has found a home in his third spell with the North Yorkshire outfit, captaining the Knights to the 1895 Cup and League Leaders' Shield in the Championship last year.

Harris was restricted to 12 appearances on his return to Super League but is optimistic about the future at the LNER Community Stadium.

"I still have a lot that I want to achieve here," he said. "With the new ownership, the club are building something special and I can't wait to be a part of that."

Harris joins influential prop Jack Martin in committing his future, capping a busy week for the club after the signings of Brad Fash and Ronan Michael.

Mark Applegarth has backed Harris to prove his quality in 2027.

"It was a difficult year for him last year, transitioning back into Super League and then picking up an injury," said the York boss.

"I'm delighted we've agreed a deal and Liam can show everyone what he can do."
