Luther Burrell begins training with Warrington Wolves
After his career in union and with Northampton Saints ended under two weeks ago, many would have thought that Luther Burrell would take a break ahead of his move to rugby league with Warrington Wolves.
The Saints have just finished an extraordinarily long season, reaching the semi-finals of both the Premiership and the European Challenge Cup. Additionally, Chris Boyd’s side won the Premiership Rugby Cup, meaning Burrell would have played a lot of rugby this season.
However, it looks like the former England international is already in training with the Wolves. This was revealed through his new teammate Josh Charnley’s Instagram, showing the 31-year-old in his new Warrington training kit.

Although many thought he would take some time out before his league career starts, Burrell could be playing sooner than expected.
