Hull KR have signed forward Kelepi Tanginoa on a three-year deal from former Super League side Wakefield Trinity.

The 29-year-old joins after spending five seasons at Trinity, ending in relegation to the Championship.

Tanginoa previously played in the NRL with Parramatta Eels, North Queensland Cowboys and Manly Sea Eagles.

"I was really excited when I found I had the opportunity to come to Hull KR," he told the club's website.

"I know what [boss] Willie Peters can bring out of me as a player and to see what he's brought to Hull KR and the progress they've made in the Challenge Cup and Super League, I'm really grateful to be a part of that next year."

While with Trinity, Tanginoa scored 21 tries in 88 games and was also named in the Super League Dream Team during 2020.
