The Salford Red Devils have confirmed the departure of forward Gareth Hock just two years into his four-year deal.
The former Wigan Warriors forward has certainly had his problems throughout his career, including short-term and long-term bans. Recently, Hock was given a six-match ban for dangerous contacts with his knees in a tackle vs St Helens in Super League round two.
Koukash suggested on Sky Sports last week that Hock should look somewhere else outside of Rugby League.
Gareth Hock and Salford owner Marwan Koukash both confirmed his departure last night on social media, with Koukash tweeting: "Gareth Hock has left the club. I thank him for his services and wish him well and the very best for the future . Good luck mate"
"What ever you think of Gaz as a player, he is a very nice person and did deserve all the help he got and will get off me"
The club are yet to confirm the departure on their official website.
It is rumoured that Hock could be joining Championship side Leigh Centurions, while another of Salford's stars, Kevin Locke, has been rumoured to a move to Scottish Rugby Union.
