Warrington have signed utility back Gary Wheeler following his release by Super League champions St Helens.

Wheeler, who has made 56 appearances for his home-town club since making his debut in 2008, will move to the Halliwell Jones Stadium on a one-year contract.

The 25-year-old is Wolves’ third signing for 2015 following their recruitment of Fiji international forward Ashton Sims and Man of Steel Daryl Clark.

Warrington head of coaching and rugby Tony Smith said: "I've been a big admirer of Gary's ability for some time. I first witnessed his skills when he played for England Academy.

"He's extremely versatile and will add real depth to the squad. At times he's had some bad luck with injuries but we've assessed the situation and look forward to him contributing to the 2015 season."
