Dylan "The Utility Man" Walker could be looking for a new home on the Rugby League battlefield for the 2025 NRL season.
The New Zealand Warriors player, known for his versatility in multiple positions including lock forward, the halves, centre, fullback, and even dummy half, has been a linchpin in Andrew Webster's squad since 2023.
Despite a strong showing last year with a top-four finish and a preliminary final appearance, Walker has struggled to reach those same heights this season, with injuries holding him back.
According to reports from the Rugby League experts at Zero Tackle and The Mole from Wide World of Sports, Walker could be saying goodbye to the Warriors at the end of the year.
Currently under contract until 2025, Walker may need a release from the Warriors to make the switch to a new club.
The Warriors, facing a hefty price tag of around $700,000 per season for the 29-year-old, might see the benefits of letting him go for the right price.
With the Rugby League transfer market always full of surprises and unexpected moves, Walker's potential switch will be one to watch for fans and pundits alike, as he looks to leave his mark on a new team and continue his career in the ever-competitive world of Australian Rugby League.
