\n <\/p>\n

Another season, another Tino Fa’asuamaleaui<\/a> contract clause activated.<\/p>\n

I joke, but also not really…<\/p>\n

The number of times we’ve seen Tino (and David Fifita<\/a>) allowed to talk to other clubs over the years is laughable.<\/p>\n

Well, here we go again!<\/p>\n

It’s looking less likely though that the Titans captain is using this as an opportunity to bump up his current deal with the Titans.<\/p>\n

If you ask me, he’s done. Probably not a bad thing considering the state of the Titans, but a massive potential loss.<\/p>\n

Tino Fa’asuamaleaui<\/a> is a player you could name 16 teams below. 17 with the Bears coming up. PNG would want him also.<\/p>\n

Naming five genuine landing spots, considering his stature, value and career prospects though is still fairly straightforward.<\/p>\n

Hewre are the five best landing spots for Tino Fa’asuamaleaui<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is no secret at all that the Bears are desperate to land Tino Fa’asuamaleaui<\/a>‘s signature.<\/p>\n

The reported figures, $7.5 million, are eye watering. They are life changing.<\/p>\n

I would not blame Tino, or the Bears, for getting the deal done as soon as humanly possible come November 1st.<\/p>\n

That said, Tino would go from being the highest paid player at a struggling club to the highest paid player at a likely to struggle club.<\/p>\n

$7.5 million dollars would certainly ease any potential burden mind you.<\/p>\n

For the Bears this is what the kids call a “no brainer”.<\/p>\n

A marquee forward for rep experience and a premiership? Sign him. Long term. Big money. Make him your captain. All on day one!<\/p>\n

For Tino it means shifting across the country and giving up any genuine title aspirations he may have, at least for a few seasons.<\/p>\n

The chance to be the clubs inaugural signing, and captain, has to be a huge lure. Again, $7.5 million dollars doesn’t hurt either.<\/p>\n

There is a very, very good chance that Tino and his management are activating one of his 37 clauses just to speak with the Bears.<\/p>\n

If they like what they hear, he could be a massive (literally) first up signing, and a player to (again literally) build a club around.<\/p>\n
