**I AM LEAVING: Beloved Wigan Warriors Star Junior Nsemba Announces Departure, Sends Emotional Message to Fans**
Wigan Warriors’ rising star Junior Nsemba has confirmed he will be leaving the club at the end of the current season, marking the end of a promising chapter with the reigning Super League champions. The 19-year-old forward, who came through the club’s academy system, made the emotional announcement via social media, thanking fans for their unwavering support.
“It’s with a heavy heart that I announce my departure from Wigan Warriors,” Nsemba wrote. “This club has been my home since I was a kid. I’ve grown here, learned here, and had the honour of wearing the cherry and white in front of the best fans in the world. Thank you for every cheer, every message, and every moment.”
Nsemba’s departure comes as a surprise to many supporters who saw him as a key figure in the club’s future. Known for his power, work ethic, and raw potential, he made 20 senior appearances and was widely praised by teammates and coaching staff alike for his maturity beyond his years.
Wigan Warriors have yet to confirm where Nsemba is heading next, but speculation is rife that a move to the NRL or another Super League contender is on the cards.
Head coach Matt Peet said in a brief statement: “Junior is a fantastic talent and an outstanding young man. He’s been a pleasure to coach, and we wish him all the best in the next stage of his journey.”
As Nsemba prepares for his next chapter, Wigan fans are left reflecting on the bright spark he brought to the DW Stadium, and many will be hoping it’s only a matter of time before he returns in cherry and white once again.
