Canberra urges Hudson Young to extend his contract amid interest from PNG Chiefs before he can negotiate with other clubs.
Canberra is urging powerhouse second-rower Hudson Young to extend his contract as the club aims to fend off the enticing offer from the PNG Chiefs.
Young's contract expires at the end of 2027, and he will be eligible to negotiate with other NRL clubs starting November 1. The Raiders are anxious to secure the NSW State of Origin star before that date.
Meanwhile, reports indicate that the Chiefs are keen on signing the 28-year-old ahead of their first season in 2028.
Raiders CEO Don Furner is committed to doing everything possible to retain Young before his agent meets with Canberra officials later this week.
