Catalans Dragons have signed Warrington half-back Richie Myler on a two-year contract from the start of next season.
The 25-year-old has made 141 Super League appearances and scored 87 tries, winning two Challenge Cup winners' medals with the Wolves.
Myler signed for Salford on a three-year deal in 2008 and helped them win the National League One title, scoring 25 tries in 32 appearances in his first season on his way to claiming the Co-Operative Player of the Year award.
He subsequently joined Warrington on a four-year contract in 2010, becoming the most expensive teenage signing in rugby league history.
Myler has also notched up seven tries in six games for England and is delighted to have secured a move to Perpignan.
“It’s a really exciting time to be joining the Catalans Dragons,” he said.
“I’m looking forward to playing my part with such an ambitious club and embracing the French culture with my family.”
Catalans Dragons head coach Laurent Frayssinous is thrilled to have secured the services of Myler.
“I’m delighted to sign Richie for the next two seasons,” he said. “The club has shown its ambition with the capture of such a quality player.
“His skills, speed, eye for a gap and his experience give him the potential to be one the best players in his position.”
