Castleford Tigers have confirmed the release of 23 year old Jacques O'Neill to "pursue another opportunity".
That's widely believed to be entering the Love Island villa, with him expected to appear on screen on the reality show this weekend.
This was teased on Friday night's programme where it was revealed an ex of Gemma Owen would be coming in - and he used to date the daughter of former England football star Michael.
Castleford say he leaves the club with their best wishes and they have the first refusal option to sign him if he makes a return to rugby league next year.
