Salesi Foketi re-signs with Sydney Roosters through 2030

Salesi Foketi is poised to confirm a three-year contract extension with the Sydney Roosters, which will keep him with the club until 2030. The 22-year-old forward emerged as a key player this year, stepping into a starting role during Angus Crichton's absence. His performance solidified his position in the team, as he played 26 games this season and significantly contributed to the Roosters' recent premiership victory. Reports indicate the deal may have been finalized prior to the end of the season, but an official announcement was deferred until after the championship.
