The Englishman was signed by Warrington to become head coach until 2025,but has been negotiating an extension that would keep him at the Wire until the end of 2026. Burgess could then potentially spend 12 months under Bennett,whose contract runs to the end of 2027.
When asked about Burgess,Bennett said:“Sam is doing a great job at Warrington,and he needs that time and space over there to do that. We’ll see what the future holds. He’s a damn good person.”
