Brown joins Devils

Kevin Brown has joined Salford Red Devils for the 2020 Season

Brown announced his move to the club live on Sky Sports and will add to head coach Ian Watson’s options at halfback, alongside Tongan international Tui Lolohea and England Knights utility player Chris Atkin.

Watson said: “Kevin’s a great player and an important signing for our team.

“Kev has a brilliant rugby mind and is capable of winning games with his smarts and kicking game alone. I can’t wait to work with him next season. 

“The level of his organisational skills, knowledge and composure are things which will benefit our whole organisation on and off the field in 2020. 

“Kev was the starting half in the World Cup final in 2017 and would have been Warrington’s first choice half this year, which shows his level of performance and experience. 

“Our young players will benefit from this massively, especially Tui and Chris. 

“This is a big signing for our team, especially considering the leadership he will offer in probably the most important position.??

Brown has made more than 300 appearances at senior level, including 10 for his country.

Director of rugby and operations Ian Blease said: “Bringing in Kevin has been an important part of assembling the squad for next season.

“His experience of playing in big occasions will be invaluable to the younger members of the squad.

“This means the team will be well equipped to perform in matches against the other elite sides in the competition.??
