Tom Trbojevic in the Super League?
A host of English clubs have reportedly been informed the Sea Eagles superstar is open to a move abroad, according to All Out Rugby League.
Trbojevic’s management have reportedly reached out to Super League franchises in recent weeks, with the gun fullback’s current contract expiring at the end of the 2026 season.

By the time his deal expires, the representative weapon will be 30, and he’s currently earning a whopping $1.1 million per season at the Manly club.
Trbojevic has battled with injuries in recent years, which led him to offer to give half his salary back to the Sea Eagles in 2024, feeling guilty about his lack of time on the field.
The SMH previously reported Trbojevic was considering a move abroad, but now the cogs have been set in motion with potential negotiations set to kick off.
Several Super League clubs are reportedly investigating whether they can afford to sign him for 2027 and fit him in their roster.
The news comes with both Tom and brother Jake Trbojevic having kicked off negotiations with Manly bosses to extend their time at the club earlier this year.
The gun No.1 would reportedly be willing to walk away if re-signing means rising players the club will have to leave.
The former Blues and Kangaroos star has reportedly told those close to him that he’d rather play overseas than against Manly, with Jake sharing that same sentiment.

He also told AAP in August that he is fully understanding his value has dropped due to his injury concerns.
“I don’t want to let people down. It’s what I value, and I know I’m paid very well and haven’t played enough footy to justify what I’ve been paid,” he said.
“I’ll sit down at the end of the year and work all that out. I’m not really too focused on it right now.
“I understand I’m not going to be paid the same amount that I’m worth now.”
Meanwhile, Jake is reportedly earning around $900,000 and the club are reportedly willing to offer a one-year extension worth around $500,000.
