NEW Zealand seamer Neil Wagner will be Lancashire’s overseas player for the 2016 season.
The 29-year-old has played 18 Tests and will mainly feature in first-class cricket at Old Trafford.
Wagner said: “I have always admired Lancashire, ever since playing in the Liverpool Lancashire league for Ormskirk in 2008.
“I’m very much looking forward to joining up with the squad and working with Ashley (Giles) and the rest of the team.”
Wagner made his Test debut against the West Indies in 2012 and has taken 67 wickets in the longest form of the game.
He previously played county cricket with Northamptonshire in 2014 after making his first-class debut in 2006.
Lancashire head coach Ashley Giles said: “Neil is a world class bowler with a tremendous pedigree.
“Having him available for such an extended period will give our Division One campaign a real boost.”
