Cody Walker, currently in the final season of his contract with the Rabbitohs, is set to receive an extension offer from the club as they aim to keep the five-eighth on their roster.
Jayden Sullivan, Walker's teammate, has expressed his confidence in Walker's ability to continue playing beyond 2025.
Walker, who is making around $600,000 this season, is among the free agents free to negotiate with other teams, making his performance crucial for securing a new deal.
Having made 215 appearances in first-grade since his debut in 2016, Walker has a proven track record of consistently delivering strong performances on the field.
Sullivan, who idolized Walker growing up, believes that as long as Walker can maintain his form and stay healthy, he will continue to play for as long as possible.
Zero Tackle reports that the Rabbitohs are preparing to offer Walker a one-year extension to keep him at the club until the end of the 2026 NRL season.
With Walker playing a key role in the Rabbitohs' push for a spot in the finals this year, his future with the club looks promising.
As a five-time NSW Blues representative, Walker's experience and skill make him a valuable asset to the team.
As negotiations for his extension progress, it is clear that the Rabbitohs are keen to secure his services for the long term.
Sullivan's endorsement of Walker's potential to continue playing beyond 2025 highlights the confidence and support within the Rabbitohs' camp for their star player.
As discussions regarding his contract extension unfold, Walker's performance on the field will undoubtedly be a key factor in determining his future with the club.
