Clint Gutherson has rejected the Eels' latest offer to keep him at the club, according to reports from The Daily Telegraph.
Various clubs are interested in signing the Parramatta centre, who is looking for a four-year deal around $700,000 per season.
Gutherson's agent Sam Ayoub decided to speak with alternative clubs after Parramatta only offered his client two different deals.
The deals were worth $475,000 and $500,000 per year over two years.
The Eels are concerned about the injury history of the player, therefore remain unconvinced in offering him a better deal.
This led to the agent telling the Eels they won't wait any longer, with the Manly Sea Eagles being a potential option for Gutherson.
His side plays the Wests Tigers on Easter Monday.
Manly already have a fullback, and with the Turbo brothers, Cherry-Evans, and Tapau on the books they will struggle to fit Gutho in. No reason to spend big money to have two fullbacks on big $.
I think he will go to the Dragons or possibly Souths – to replace Widdop or Inglis.
Gutho is a very good player and a very good clubman and Parramatta should try harder to retain him, itโs not like they have an all star roster as it is.
Perfect for the Rabbits.
Dreaming. Above average but no rep jerseys, injury prone. Should take the Parra offer.
A very good player but surely not worth 700k. Good luck to him if someone is willing to pay,
On another note I wish ZT would do something about these ads. I know this is a free site and they need to make coin but is getting to the point where it is almost unreadable.
I agree these ads are a real nuisance and turn off to coming on this site. Im either going to get some ad blocking app or just give ZT the flick.
The souffffths “TRANSIT LOUNGE” will be more than interested in this utility back. If they snap him up for 700k then they still have 800k plus 500k when George Burgess walks. This will be spent on Oates and Pangai Junior. Unless of coarse they do what they did last off season and buy 12 reject no hopers.๐๐คฃ๐๐๐คฃ๐
In that case I will have to hang around just to continue annoying you.
