Parramatta has signed Dragons winger Zac Lomax on a four-year deal commencing from the 2025 NRL season.
The worst secret in rugby league was confirmed this morning.
Lomax was recently given permission to negotiate with other clubs after expressing his unhappiness at the Dragons, where he has been shifted to the wing by new coach Shane Flanagan.
Ironically, Lomax is having one of his best seasons.
Eels CEO Jim Sarantinos said the Club is excited to be adding a player of Zac’s calibre to the NRL squad.
“Zac is a great talent and we’re confident he will be an invaluable addition to our team. He complements our existing playing squad, and with almost 100 NRL games to his name since his debut in 2018, his experience will help the strong group of young players coming through our pathways system,” he said.
“We very much look forward to welcoming Zac and his family to our club in 2025, but right now, season 2024 is our focus.”
Lomax will play out the remainder of the 2024 season with the Dragons.
