In-demand Fifita chooses new club on $3.3m deal
David Fifita will head to Bondi next year.
According to a report from 9News reporter Danny Weidler and The Sydney Morning Herald, the superstar back-rower has agreed to terms with the Sydney Roosters.
Fifita will earn $3.3 million with the Tricolours across the four-year contract, after opting to say goodbye to the Titans at the end of 2024.
The 24-year-old informed Gold Coast of his decision to leave the club on Thursday, just hours before the deadline regarding his player option.
One of the game’s most destructive forwards, Fifita will join a star-studded cast at the Chooks next year and his deal will see him remain at the club until the end of 2028.
Fifita has scored 47 tries in 112 first grade appearances with the Broncos and Titans, as well as representing Queensland on eight occasions at State of Origin level.
At this stage, the Roosters have not confirmed Fifita’s signature.
His arrival will cast immediate doubt over the future of Angus Crichton, who has returned to form this season but remains unsigned for next season with the Tricolours.
