Jai Fieldโ€™s chances of moving overseas to the Super League has been gained more traction, with Wigan coach Adrian Lam stating that he would be a perfect fit.

The 23-year old Parramatta utility was linked to Wigan before this season started but hadnโ€™t played the minimum of 11 NRL games to secure a work visa.

With injuries to Mitchell Moses and Dylan Brown this season, this now means Field has played enough games to head over to England.

Lam told Foxsports.com.au that Fieldโ€™s speed and versatility are welcome assets and would fit in well at Wigan next season.

โ€œJaiโ€™s a player weโ€™re looking at, he ticks the boxes for a player who could play in the halves, at fullback,โ€ he said.

โ€œWhen youโ€™re looking at that, itโ€™s easy to see he could fit into our position in one of those positionsโ€ฆ (He) would suit Super League with his speed.

Lam is not shy to admit that he has always been fond of Field, which strengthens the chances of the move happening.

โ€œIโ€™ve watched him growing up โ€“ Iโ€™ve always been a fan โ€“ and heโ€™s someone who could fit into this club perfectly.โ€

Field has only managed to play 11 games for St. George Illawarra before being picked up by the Eels in February, where he has only managed to add a further four games to his career.
