Hide AdWorthington made his Wigan debut in 2017 and scored a try in the third minute of a 42-30 defeat against Wakefield.
It believe the touchdown, clocked at two minutes 19 seconds, is the fastest scored by any Wigan debutant in Super League.
But since then he has been unable to force his way back into the senior side and has had stints with Toulouse, Workington and Rochdale.

"I’ve been at Wigan since I was 16, so it’s a new challenge for me and I’m eagerly looking forward to it.
“My favourite position is centre, but I can also play full-back and wing."
Samy Kibula (Warrington) has also departed and Callum Field is looking to sign for a Championship club.
