CHRIS Sandow will not be returning to Wolves for the 2017 season, the club has announced in what operations manager Karl Fitzpatrick has called "a clear breach of contract."
The Australian scrum-half, who joined the club from Parramatta Eels in the summer of 2015, informed the club of his decision via his agent.
Sandow, who is contracted to the club until the end of the upcoming season, was due to report back to the club’s Padgate training centre for pre-season training today, but it is believed he is still in Australia.
“We, the club, are disappointed that Chris has decided not to return," he said.
"We are already underway in monitoring a potential replacement both internally and externally.
“Chris is contracted until the end of 2017 and should have reported for pre-season training.
“This is a clear breach of contract. We will be retaining his registration until further notice.”
The 27-year-old made 31 appearances in primrose and blue, with the last of those coming from the bench in the Grand Final defeat to Wigan at Old Trafford on October 8.
He scored 12 tries for the club, kicked 26 goals and one drop-goal.
