Tommy Lee captained the Red Devils last season

Salford captain Tommy Lee has joined St Helens on a two-year contract.

The 28-year-old hooker has made 210 appearances for his clubs, scoring 22 tries and is equally adept in the halves and at nine.

Lee had previously played for Hull FC, Wakefield and Huddersfield in the top flight, as well as Crusaders and London. He progressed from his amateur club West Hull to make his debut for Hull FC in 2005.

St Helens head coach Keiron Cunningham said: "Tommy is a versatile player who can play at 9, in the halves and at loose forward, taking pressure off James Roby.

"He is experienced too and his leadership and composure will be vital in our young squad as we look to challenge for honours this season."
