Russell has joined the Rhinos on a short-term loan deal.
Leeds Rhinos have bolstered their squad with the signing of Scotland international Matty Russell. The winger has joined Leeds on a four-week loan deal from Warrington Wolves in a move that provides the club with depth in the outside backs at a time when the club is struggling on the injury front.
30-year-old Russell, who is understood to be a transfer target for Wakefield Trinity next year, has had a range of clubs throughout his career, one that has seen him score 151 times in 212 appearances. It will be his second loan spell of the season having played for Hull FC earlier in the year.
