Hull FC centre Carlos Tuimavave is to leave the Super League club at the end of the season.

The 32-year-old New Zealander joined the Black and Whites for the 2016 season and was part of the team who won successive Challenge Cup finals in 2016 and 2017.

He has made 161 Super League appearances and is the club鈥檚 fourth-highest overseas appearance-maker of all-time.

"I originally signed a three-year contract at the age of 23, but things work out differently to what you plan, and I have no regrets," .

鈥淚t鈥檚 mixed emotions for me at the moment, but it鈥檚 the right time to move on. I鈥檓 very proud of what I鈥檝e achieved.

"My family love Hull FC as much as I do. My kids know no different, they love this club."

Tuimavave's exit, along with the retirement of club legend Danny Houghton, means that none of the players who were part of their double Challenge Cup success will still be at the club next season.

The pair will end their time with the side on the back of a hugely disappointing campaign in which they have won only three times with two matches to play.
