The Sydney Roosters have denied any interest in Parramatta Eels halfback Mitchell Moses.

Moses had the opportunity to join the club four years ago – but rejected a big-money offer.

“We’re not interested,” said Roosters chairman Nick Politis.

“We’re more than happy with Sam Walker as our halfback.

“There has been absolutely no discussion around Mitchell Moses.”

Moses has been offered $5 million over four years at the Eels but is baulking at signing.

The Roosters have a suspicion the club is being used as a leverage to build on Moses’ $1.2 million-a-year offer from the Eels.

“That’s why it’s important we make a statement and confirm he is not part of our plans,” Politis said.
