Parramatta have landed former Test and Origin prop Reagan Campbell-Gillard on a bumper five-year deal from 2020.

Campbell-Gillard was under contract with Penrith for another five seasons but has been released to take up with the Eels, who have been linked to the enforcer for some time and will hold his services until at least the end of 2024.

“We’re continuing to build our roster and the addition of Reagan, a representative forward, is a great fit for our team,” said Parramatta general manager of football Mark O’Neill.

Campbell-Gillard has played 114 matches for Penrith since making his debut in 2015.

He played five Tests for Australia in 2017 and debuted for New South Wales the following season but a broken jaw has stopped him from hitting his best in the last 18 months.

The 26-year old played 23 matches for Penrith this season.
