NRL signings: Wests Tigers land major coup with David Nofoaluma signing contract extension

The Wests Tigers have trumped a host of rugby league rivals to lock in one of the hottest wing talents on the open market.

The Tigers have fended off a series of poaching raids to re-sign Dally M Winger of the Year David Nofoaluma.

The 27-year-old, who also won Wests Tigers’ Kelly-Barnes medal as the club’s best and fairest player last season, has signed a four-year extension.

The deal keeps him at the club until the end of 2025, potentially making him a Wests Tigers player for life.

David Nofoaluma has re-signed for four years.

South Sydney were considered the Tigers’ major rivals to sign Nofoaluma.

However, they on Wednesday secured the services of Josh Mansour.

Nofoaluma was also linked to the Parramatta Eels.

The deal could make David Nofoaluma a Tiger for life.

“I obviously love the Wests Tigers and the fans, you can tell by my passion.” Nofoaluma told The Daily Telegraph in December.

“But in reality, I am heading into what could potentially be my last contract.

“I am going to explore all my options and weigh up what’s the best decision for myself and more importantly my future.”
