Canberra Raiders dummy half Zac Woolford has reportedly been offered to several clubs as the pre-season for the 2024 season begins.

The reports have emerged after Ricky Stuart is likely to use the combination of Danny Levi and Tom Starling for the upcoming season.

It is even more surprising considering Woolford played in 21 games last season - 20 games in the number nine jersey -including the finals match against the Newcastle Knights.

League Express understands that Woolford has been offered to several Super League sides, but they have not named the exact clubs he has been offered to.

Rumors of a move to England continue to surround Raiders hooker Zac Woolford.

While Woolford remains part of the club's plans for 2024, he will be off contract at the end off the season and it is thought that the Raiders will see how things play out over the coming period before making a move.

The Canberra Times reports that the club is happy with their dummy half depth, with Tom Starling, Danny Levi, and Adrian Trevilyan also vying for the hooking role in Canberra along with Woolford.

The son of former Raiders captain Simon Woolford, Zac has quickly become a fan-favorite at the Green Machine, with his appearance and playing style reminding many fans of his father.

Woolford has reportedly told those close to him that he is not looking for a move, however rumors emanating from England continue to link him with a switch to the Super League at some point in the future.
