JARRYD Hayne’s manager Wayne Beavis has confirmed the under-fire Gold Coast star wants to remain in rugby league even if he is forced out of the Titans.

French rugby has been thrown up as a potential destination for Hayne, but Beavis said he has had no contact with the rival code.

Beavis caught up with Hayne on the Gold Coast today to discuss his uncertain future following his public spat with coach Neil Henry.

Asked if the embattled Titans fullback wants to stay in league, he said: “Of course he does.”

“He (Jarryd) will probably fly down with the team, so I sent him a note this morning saying we’ll catch up when you get here.

“I’ve had no discussions with them (Gold Coast). They haven’t contacted me.

“It’s business as usual.

“There is no issue. He (Jarryd) has done nothing wrong.”

The pair’s rocky relationship, which has resulted in ultimatums from both parties, looks set to cost Henry his job despite having one year to run on his contract.

Hayne also won’t escape unscathed.

It’s understood the Titans will give the Test and Origin flyer permission to leave the club despite having a year to run on his contract.

However, it won’t be an easy sell.

Hayne is on a contract worth approximately $1.2 million, meaning a rival club would have to pick up a significant percentage of this wage.

The Daily Telegraph contacted all 16 NRL clubs this week, with the vast majority ruling out taking on the ex-San Francisco 49er.

Hayne has been ruled out of Thursday’s clash against his former club Parramatta with an ankle injury.
