Salford have signed half-back Kevin Brown from Warrington for the 2020 season.

The 34-year-old has made 343 career appearances for Wigan, Huddersfield, Widnes, Warrington and Leigh, scoring 139 tries.

Brown has also earned 10 caps for his country and played in the 2017 World Cup final.

Salford coach Ian Watson said: “Kevin’s a great player and an important signing for our team.

“The level of his organisational skills, knowledge and composure are things which will benefit our whole organisation on and off the field in 2020.

“Kev was the starting half in the World Cup final in 2017 and would have been Warrington’s first choice half this year, which shows his level of performance and experience.

“This is a big signing for our team, especially considering the leadership he will offer in probably the most important position.”
