Charnley, 26, has returned to rugby league after 32 appearances for union side Sale Sharks, alongside former Castleford Tigers winger Denny Solomona.
The winger – who scored 141 tries in 153 Super League games for Wigan – has joined ambitious Warrington on a contract until the end of 2020 and reckons his new club can challenge for a place in the Betfred Super League semi-finals.

“There wasn’t much persuasion needed.
“I know a few boys here who speak highly of this club so it wasn’t a tough decision to put pen to paper.
“I’ve been out of the game 17 months and I’ll be looking to bring some enthusiasm to the boys and bring a bit of pace to the team. I’ll try and be a bit physical and try and give the lads a lift.”
Coach Steve Price has yet to reveal whether Charnley is in contention for Friday’s game, but said: “Josh is an exciting talent. He’s a player who can beat people and break tackles. He has got electric speed and is a fantastic finisher. I feel he can bring something different to what we have at the moment.”
