NEW Wolves signing Kevin Brown will wear the number six shirt for the 2017 season, the club have confirmed.

Kurt Gidley had been given the shirt, previously worn by Stefan Ratchford, before Brown signed, but the Australian will now wear the number seven shirt vacated by Chris Sandow.

England international Brown’s arrival from neighbours Widnes was confirmed on Friday, putting weeks of rumours to an end.

Any fans who have bought a ‘Gidley 6’ replica shirt will be able to exchange it like-for-like from the club’s official store.
