Fullback Tyrell Sloan could become the latest player to depart the Dragons with an overseas club circling his signature.
Without a contract for next season, Sloan is unlikely to remain at the Red V after falling down the pecking order and rarely being used in his primary position since Clin Gutherson moved to the club.

This has seen reports emerge from Code Sports that he is being targeted by the Castelford Tigers in the overseas Super League competition.
Coached by former Dragons assistant coach Ryan Carr, Castleford have already managed to sign Damien Cook and Matt Feagai for the 2027 season.
It is understood that the 24-year-old has also attracted interest from within the NRL.

“I love this club, I’d do anything for the Red V. It’s home for me,” Sloan told the publication.
“I don’t want to leave, but I do know it’s a business. When I do wear that jersey, I just want to wear it with pride.
“I know there’s been a lot of history with myself being in and out of the team each week, but the boys are in a good space and I’m happy to support that whether I’m in the team or not.”
Scoring 49 tries in 86 first-grade appearances, if Sloan departed the Dragons, he would become the fifth member of the roster to leave as the club continues to overhaul their roster.
Jadyn Su’A has agreed to the Parramatta Eels, while front-rower Emre Guler has committed to the Wakefield Trinity for next year.
Meanwhile, the off-contract quartet of Blake Lawrie, Christian Tuipulotu, Hame Sele and Nathan Lawson are also facing uncertain futures and are unlikely to be extended beyond this season.

MANLY KEEN TO LOCK DOWN YOUNG GUN
The Manly Sea Eagles are attempting to lock down the services of a young outside back as he prepares to hit the open market in a few months’ time.
Free to negotiate and speak with rival teams from November 1, Code Sports understands that the Sea Eagles are trying to extend Clayton Faulalo on a long-term deal, which would see him earn a significant salary upgrade.
Named the club’s NSW Cup Players’ Player last year, the 26-year-old has made nine NRL appearances this season but has taken his game to new heights since transitioning to the fullback role.
Scoring six tries, making 30 tackle busts and seven line-breaks, providing six try assists and averaging 153 running metres, Faulalo has emerged as a potential long-term option for the No.1 jersey at the club.
Unfortunately, he is set to spend the next few weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury that he picked up against the South Sydney Rabbitohs on Thursday night.
