Latham, the second-highest try-scorer in Australia's history, has the option of a third year, which could keep him at Sixways until the end of the 2010-11 season.

Director of rugby Mike Ruddock told Worcester's official website: "We're absolutely delighted that Chris Latham, the world's best full-back, has decided to join us."

He added: "We've made no secret of the fact that we want to strengthen the team through the acquisition of world-class players and by grooming our own young players through our Academy structure.

"With the arrival of Chris Latham and the re-signing of Chris Pennell, it shows we are determined to develop both strategies."

Latham said: "My family and I are really looking forward to moving to Worcester - I am very excited about playing in the Guinness Premiership for the Warriors.

"I have enjoyed a wonderful decade of rugby with the Queensland Reds and the Wallabies. At this stage of my life and career I feel it the right time for both my family and I to experience new things and to give myself fresh and challenging goals, as I know I am yet to play my best rugby."
