Mbye set to quit Tigers as NRL rival haggles over exit fee
Former Wests Tigers captain Moses Mbye is poised to join St George Illawarra next season.
A report in the
Daily Telegraph claims that Mbye will be allowed to leave from the final year of his contract and is seen as the man to take over from Corey Norman at five-eighth.
The last hurdle to overcome is Mbye’s salary and who will pay it.
The Queensland Origin representative is on north of $800,000 next seaon and the Dragons are expecting the Tigers to contribute to Mbye’s pay packet.
“It is up to the clubs now,” Mbye’s manager Sam Ayoub told the
Telegraph.
“They are the ones that have to negotiate the terms of the deal given he is contracted to the Tigers for another year.”
Earlier this year Mbye revealed he would be happy to leave the club early to make way for them to strengthen in other areas.
“Let’s be brutally honest, I don’t think the club would be thrilled that their marquee player is being used off the bench for half an hour a week,” he said.
“The club is not getting value for money out of me. I have a big opinion of the club and want to be part of its success. It’s why I have no intention of leaving this year or leaving the club in a hole.
“If it doesn’t work out elsewhere then I have no hesitations committing myself to the Tigers in 2022, but I feel it’s an avenue worth exploring.”
