Currie missed the first five months of the Betfred Super League 2017 season after tearing an anterior cruciate ligament against Wigan the previous September.
He made his comeback just in time to earn a place in England’s squad for the 2017 World Cup and went on to play in all six matches including the final.

A spokesman for Warrington’s performance team said: “The recent scan has shown that Ben Currie aggravated an old knee injury.
