NRL News: Parramatta Eels Star Mitchell Moses Terminates 7-Year Contract Amid Shocking Developments…
In a stunning twist that has sent shockwaves through the NRL community, Parramatta Eels star halfback Mitchell Moses has reportedly terminated his 7-year contract with the club, just months into the long-term deal.
Multiple sources close to the Eels have confirmed that Moses, 30, invoked a release clause under confidential terms, sparking speculation about a potential move overseas or even a shock switch to rugby union.
The news comes as a major blow to the Eels, who had banked on Moses as the central figure in their premiership ambitions. He re-signed in 2023 on a deal reportedly worth over $1 million per season, designed to keep him in Parramatta colors until the end of 2030.
> “We are aware of Mitchell’s decision and are currently working through the appropriate steps with his management,” the club said in a brief statement released Thursday. “The Parramatta Eels remain committed to building a competitive and united squad.”
Moses has yet to make a public comment, but insiders suggest the decision may stem from frustrations with the club’s direction, coaching instability, or personal considerations. Some reports also indicate interest from Super League clubs in the UK and Japanese rugby franchises.
Fans have expressed mixed emotions — from disappointment and confusion to gratitude for his contributions to the blue and gold since 2017.
Mitchell Moses has played over 200 NRL games, represented New South Wales in State of Origin, and was a pivotal figure in the Eels’ 2022 Grand Final run.
