Corey Thompson will leave Canterbury at the end of the season after taking up a two-year deal with Widnes.
At just 179cm, Thompson is the NRL's smallest winger, but has made a fair fist of it since earning his first-grade debut last year.
The 25-year-old has scored 15 tries in 35 games, piquing the interest of several NRL clubs.
However, the Vikings deal, which has an option in his favour for the second year, was too good to refuse. Widnes have also boosted their three-quarter stocks with the signing of former Rooster Setaimata Sa.

I was told only one out of him and Perrett would be re-signed. Looks like he was on the money. A bit of a shame if you ask me. Signed as a FB and never given a shot. Plays with twice the heart as som players out there.
