If he makes the grade, Dean could prove the long-term successor to veteran Chad Townsend, who is nearing the end of his career.<\/p>\n

Dean confirmed the move on his social media on Thursday, declaring: "From joining the club at 14, fast forward all the years. Huge thanks to (Warrington) for everything and everyone involved from staff to best mates for life. Been a pleasure, but onto the next challenge and adventure."<\/p>\n

The youngster has played 10 top grade games for Warrington and had several loan spells with rival clubs.<\/p>\n

He also holds the distinction of being the first ever captain of an Ireland under 16 team and was a member of the Irish squad in the 2021 World Cup qualifiers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
