Warrington Wolves vice-captain Kevin Brown is set to miss the entirety of the Super League season due to a serious Achilles injury.

Veteran half-back Brown suffered the injury on Saturday with scans confirming he has suffered a ruptured Achilles.

Warrington say the projected recovery time for Brown's injury is around nine months.

The 34-year-old's future is now unclear as he has less than 12 months to run on his existing deal.

St Helens-born Brown started his career at Wigan before spells at Huddersfield and Widnes. Brown joined Warrington ahead of the 2017 Super League season.
