The Addin Fonua-Blake drama has taken a fresh twist with the news that the Dragons have offered him a staggering $4.5 million contract.
This comes after the Bulldogs seemed to drop out of the race for his signature, despite showing interest a few weeks ago.
Fonua-Blake had expressed his desire to leave the Warriors, and it seems he will be granted a release from his contract two years early.
The Tigers were initially seen as the frontrunners to secure the star forward, with the salary cap room and financial capability to meet his reported asking price of $1.2 million.
However, on Tuesday, it was reported that the Dragons had swooped in with a lucrative offer.
Meanwhile, the Sharks are also lurking in the background, having freed up space in their salary cap.
The Warriors, on the other hand, are said to be interested in a potential trade if Fonua-Blake were to sign with the Tigers or Dragons.
Overall, the race for Fonua-Blake's signature is heating up, and it remains to be seen where he will end up.
