Reece Walsh has reportedly clinched a new contract with the Brisbane Broncos that has left Rugby League legend Andrew Johns stunned.
According to reports from news.com.au, Walsh has agreed to a whopping $5 million contract extension with the Broncos.
The talented fullback's contract negotiations have been ongoing for a year, but the Broncos have managed to secure a deal that has turned heads.
Pulling off the agreement before the November 1 deadline, which would have allowed other clubs to swoop in, is a major win for the Broncos.
Describing the deal as a "steal," Johns can't believe the Broncos managed to lock in Walsh for another five years.
As revealed by The Courier Mail, Walsh is now committed to the Broncos until the end of the 2029 season.
This move by the Broncos is being hailed as a masterstroke, a strategic play that secures their future.
