But the NRL club today confirmed 11 players who will be departing after their season ended with defeat in the play-offs.

It is thought he has agreed a deal to join the Warriors next term.

Field, known for his speed, can play full-back or halfback. He has played the necessary games to qualify for a visa.

Adrian Lam has previously said he would be an asset for Wigan. "I've watched him growing up - I've always been a fan - and he's someone who could fit into this club perfectly," he said.
