Salford’s financial problems have been well reported in recent days and weeks, as the Red Devils were told by the RFL to find £1.2 million in salary cap space, which meant they had to sell players immediately.
Salford is now prohibited from signing players for the 2025 Super League season, thus sales must be completed quickly. Wilson has stated that the Tigers are considering Ormondroyd, a former Leeds Rhinos player.
“We’ve been in communication with Salford. I empathise with the situation they’re in but we’re one of the clubs that can help them out. We’ve got money, cap space and need middles.
“Jack would fit the bill for us. He’s a big body and has got a lot of experience to help some of the younger middles through.
“He is a player who would benefit us and make us better, absolutely. There are some other players in there as well.”
Wilson also revealed that the Tigers had been turned down by Oledzki – with League Express first reporting Castleford’s interest last month.
“We’ve got a fair bit of money free for 2026,” Wilson continued.

“I’ve spoken quite openly about a three-year plan. Last year was year one, this is year two and next year was always the one where you’re looking at having a decent amount of money free.
“People say Cas need middles or certain types of middles and we absolutely do. I agree completely but the market for English middles is very tough and congested.
“You want some quality punch in your pack with some good years in front of them and Mikolaj was one of those. You talk about packages because of his calibre and the market as well and they were probably beyond what Castleford have offered in recent years in particular.
“I completely understand Mikolaj’s decision to stay. We’ve just got to be in the race and keep competing.
Our on-field performances will talk for themselves in future years. Attracting top-line players is certainly on our agenda.”
