The Wests Tigers are facing some turmoil with their young star player, Lachlan Galvin, who has shocked everyone with his request to leave the club.
According to reports from news.com.au, Galvin's camp is determined to push for an early release, citing "deeper roots" behind the 18-year-old's dissatisfaction at the club.
A recent bombshell report revealed that Galvin's manager has been seeking a release multiple times, and it was even rumored that he expressed his desire to leave to his teammates after a disappointing defeat to the Dragons.
Despite being contracted to the Tigers until 2026, CEO Shane Richardson has made it clear that the club has no intention of letting Galvin go.
During an appearance on NRL 360, journalist Dave Riccio echoed Richardson's firm stance, stating that the young talent will not be freed from the Tigers on Richardson's watch.
The drama surrounding Galvin is intensifying, with tensions rising in the locker room and on the field.
Only time will tell if the Tigers can weather this storm and keep their promising player in the fold.
