Warrington Wolves half-back George Williams and prop Paul Vaughan have signed new contracts.

England international Williams, 28, has extended his deal through to the end of the 2026 season, while 31-year-old Vaughan will remain with the club until the end of 2025.

Warrington are four points clear at the top with eight successive wins.

"I'm really happy to nail my future down. We've got a great group here and I'm excited for what's to come," Williams, who had been linked with a return to the NRL,

"How we've started the year has been unbelievable and there's a lot more behind that - the environment and culture we've all created. It's enjoyable to come to work everyday, everyone's got a smile on their face and I'm happy that I'm staying."

Vaughan added: "It's a really good feeling. It was a big move for my family coming over but we're really happy and settled and it's exciting to be able to extend my stay.

"The club's been really good to us and made that transition pretty easy. We're loving it and it's really exciting."
