CONFIRMATION has been released this week that Matty Blythe has signed a new one-year deal with Warrington Wolves.

He made one appearance in the first team last season, spending the rest of the year on dual registration with Leigh Centurions in the Co-operative Championship.

Leigh boss Ian Millward had already revealed he would like to have Blythe on board again for 2011 after seeing the 21-year-old successfully revert back to the centres from a spell as a back rower.

Blythe came through the Wolves scholarship scheme with William Beamont School and played representative rugby for England Academy in 2006 and 2007.
