LeagueNews.co | Jason Patrick

Tevita Pangai Jr.

is on the move again, as plans for a return to Australia have fallen through.

Initial hopes for him to join the ACT Brumbies in Super Rugby were dashed when negotiations broke down, despite the talks being in advanced stages.

Now, Pangai will transition from the Catalans Dragons to the Warrington Wolves on a one-year deal.

According to the Daily Telegraph, he will be playing under coach Sam Burgess, with whom he shares a connection through former South Sydney Rabbitohs coach Wayne Bennett.

This linkage likely influenced the Wolves' decision to sign him for the upcoming season.
