In the latest twist of the Rugby League saga, the Manly Sea Eagles have officially parted ways with rising star Josh Schuster.
The club and the player have reached a final agreement, bringing an end to the ongoing drama surrounding his future in the NRL.
Phil Gould, the Bulldogs supremo, is confident that Schuster will bounce back and find a new club in no time.
Despite being without a team for now, the young talent is expected to make a comeback on the field by next year, showing resilience in the face of adversity.
Schuster's lucrative $800,000 per season deal with Manly raised eyebrows, especially after the club signed Luke Brooks for the five-eighth position, relegating Schuster to the second row.
Despite early success in the back row, Schuster struggled to live up to the hype and pressure of being labeled as the "next big thing."
After a tumultuous period that included on-field setbacks and off-field struggles, Schuster's time at Manly came to a bitter end.
The player had a forgettable pre-season, battling injuries and setbacks that ultimately led to the decision to terminate his contract and grant him personal leave.
As the curtains close on this chapter of Schuster's career, the Rugby League community eagerly awaits his next move and hopes to see him back in action soon, ready to prove his worth on the field once again.
