Manchester are thrilled to announce the return of Great Britain Internationals Kaiyem Cleary & Kayne Henry for the 2026-27 roster - both players extending their deals.

Kaiyem had an impressive first season back home in Manchester averaging 13.2 ppg in the SLB Championship, scoring 237 points, Cleary also averaged 14 pts in the ENBL competition.

“Not many things replicate the feeling of playing for your city,” reflected Kaiyem. “You’re carrying more than your name, you’re carrying your city’s colours, its history, and everyone who believes in you.”

Kayne Henry returns after a season which saw the Londoner make his full senior Great Britain debut. Henry averaged 13.4 pts per game across his 5 European outings.

“I’m excited to be back with Manchester,” Kayne Henry added. “We did big things last season and I can’t wait to see the future has in store for us.”

Head Coach Matthew Otten commented: “I feel confident about our domestic player core. With Kaiyem and Kayne returning our defence and position versatility will translate well to our roster build. These guys have elite work ethic and great intention to our team and goals as a club.”
