Christmas has come early for Eels fans with Parramatta today announcing the re-signing of forward Junior Paulo until the end of the 2026 NRL season.
Making his NSW Origin debut in 2020, Paulo has made his mark as one of the NRL’s best front rowers.
“Junior is not just a skilful front rower, he is an asset to the Club both on and off the field. His selection into the NSW Origin team is a testament to his ability and the hard work he puts into his game,” said Mark O’Neill, Parramatta Eels Club General Manager of Football.
As a Parramatta Eels junior, he made his NRL debut for the Parramatta Eels in 2013 and is now approaching 200 NRL games.
