Penrith Panthers sign young playmaker Haami Loza as ten players may leave this off-season.
The Penrith Panthers have reportedly acquired a talented young playmaker from the Newcastle Knights, aligning with speculation that as many as 10 players might leave the defending champions during the upcoming off-season. According to Peter Lang from 'The Western Weekender', Haami Loza has agreed to join the Panthers.
At just 21 years old, Loza is well-regarded at the Knights and made his debut in the NSW Cup earlier this season. Lang stated, "Haami has plenty of potential and will no doubt thrive in the Penrith Panthers pathways system."
This signing follows the Panthers' recent acquisition of Keahn Skipps from the Canberra Raiders. Skipps served as captain of the Raiders' Jersey Flegg Cup team at the Under-19 level and is also highly rated. Both Skipps and Loza will benefit from the guidance of star Panthers halfback Nathan Cleary, with Lang predicting that they will soon vie for a spot in the first grade.
