The highly anticipated move of young rugby league sensation Matty Nicholson has been officially confirmed. The 20-year-old star will be departing from Warrington Wolves to join the esteemed ranks of the Canberra Raiders in the NRL, following his impressive performance in the 2022 Super League season.
Nicholson, who previously showcased his talents with the Wigan Warriors, further solidified his appeal during his time with Warrington Wolves, attracting interest from up to five NRL teams. Ultimately, it is the Raiders who have emerged as the successful bidders, fortifying their roster with yet another English player.
