Super League side Catalans Dragons are set to raid the NRL once again, and have reportedly offered another forward a long-term deal to join the club for 2027.
The French side have already secured the signatures of half-back Tyson Gamble and outside back Jesse Arthars from down under, with boss John Cartwright, who has reportedly signed a two-year deal, wanting to bring in experienced bodies from the NRL.
Catalans are also rumoured to have tabled a deal for St George Illawarra forward Luciano Leilua, who is out of contract at the end of the season.
Now, a fourth Australian-based player could be on the move to Perpignan, with Cronulla Sharks prop Toby Rudolf reportedly receiving a three-year contract from the Super League outfit.
Rudolf is the current teammate of Cameron McInnes, who is all but confirmed to have signed with York Knights for season 2027.
The 30-year-old has been at the Cronulla Sharks since 2020, having made his way through the reserve grade before landing his NRL opportunity.
The reports come from the Sydney Morning Herald, and they also state that Cronulla, who have signed Leigh forward Owen Trout for 2027, will consider matching the offer before he makes a decision.
