The Parramatta Eels have announced the re-signing of hooker Cameron King on a one-year deal until the end of the 2018 season.

King came back into the NRL squad mid-season after Kaysa Pritchard suffered a knee injury in Round 15 against the Dragons, opening up a spot for him in the No.9 jersey.

The 26-year-old joined the Eels in 2016, coming from the North Queensland Cowboys and previously played for the St George Illawarra Dragons.

"Cameron has had a tough run with injuries throughout his career but is a great talent and played an important role in our teams first Finals series since 2009," CEO Bernie Gurr said.

"We are very pleased to have secured Cameron’s signature for 2018 and look forward to his continued improvement next season."
