Faraimo put pen to paper with the Fords signing a two-year contract from Hull FC in 2021 and will bolster the depth in backs with his arrival to Wheldon Road.

The New Zealander made his mark at semi-professional club Mackay Cutters where it took him half a season to reach an impressive 29 tries. His talent alerted professional clubs to which Parramatta Eels snapped him up and Faraimo remained there until 2017. The winger switched to New Zealand Warriors before making the move to Hull FC where he spent three seasons.

The 31-year-old throughout his career has made international appearances for USA in the 2013 and 2017 Rugby League World Cup, as well as the 2019 Rugby League World Cup 9s.

Faraimo has looked solid and durable across the pre-season scoring in friendlies against Featherstone, Whitehaven and Huddersfield and will be looking to score more in 2023.
