Josh Charnley: Sale Sharks name winger on bench for Wasps game

Josh Charnley scored 165 tries in 176 appearances for Wigan

Josh Charnley has been named on the bench for Sale Sharks' Anglo-Welsh Cup game against Wasps on Friday, when he is expected to make his debut in rugby union.

The 25-year-old has been training for two weeks at Sale, since his cross-code switch from Wigan Warriors.

He won his second Grand Final in his last game for Wigan on October 8.

"He's settled in really well and we're delighted he's here," Sharks director of rugby Steve Diamond told BBC Sport.
