Roger Tuivasa-Sheck's management has confirmed that the rugby league star is contemplating a switch to the Saudi Arabian-backed R360 league.

Reports suggest that this emerging competition could offer Tuivasa-Sheck substantial financial incentives, potentially exceeding $1 million annually once his contract with the New Zealand Warriors concludes in 2026.

His manager, Bruce Sharrock, has close connections to the R360 league and revealed to the Sydney Morning Herald that Tuivasa-Sheck is seriously considering this opportunity.

"We've explored what is a developing competition called R360," Sharrock stated.

He elaborated, "It's been in the making for 12-18 months.

Roger comes off his current NRL contract in 2026, and as part of that planning, I threw this in front of him and asked if he had any interest in this option."

The potential move has stirred interest, given the lucrative contracts offered in emerging competitions.
