The Sydney Roosters and Newcastle Knights are experiencing a roadblock in negotiations regarding Dominic Young's potential return to the Knights.
Reports from zerotackle.com indicate that the winger has been linked to a switch back to Newcastle after being demoted to reserve grade with the Roosters.
While the Roosters have not officially stated that Young has played his last game for the club, coach Trent Robinson expressed a desire to see improvements in their new combinations in the outside backs after Young's initial absence from the squad.
Young's time at the Roosters has been marred by concerns regarding his defense and ball handling.
It's believed that his presence on the first-grade team was largely sustained due to injuries affecting other players.
As the June 30 deadline for player movements approaches, the Knights have expressed interest in bringing Young back to their struggling team following his departure at the end of the 2023 season for the Roosters.
