FORMER York City Knights players Yusuf Sozi and Chris Ross have both signed for LHF National League One rivals Doncaster Lakers.

Crowd-pleasing prop Sozi, 23, who was at Huntington Stadium for two seasons, failed to agree new terms with York in September and trained for a while with Otley RU Club before signing on at Belle Vue.

Goalkicking former Hunslet utility back Ross, 27, played 15 times in York's NL2 promotion campaign but struggled to hold down a regular shirt and his exit comes as little surprise. He has previously played for Doncaster.
