Manly second-rower Haumole Olakau'atu has re-signed on a long-term deal.
The Sea Eagles confirmed Olakau'atu's extension on Friday morning, tying him to the club until the end of the 2024 season.
The 22-year old has played seven NRL matches, including five in 2020, since making his first-grade debut in the 2019 finals series.
He is hoping to solidify first-grade spot in Des Hasler's team in 2021.
"I'm really excited to extend my contract here at Manly. This Club means everything to me and I look forward to further developing my game under Coach Des Hasler,'' Olakau'atu told the club website.
"I just want to play some really consistent football and try to secure a regular spot in the team."
