Wests Tigers Re-Sign Star Playmaker Adam Doueihi
In a significant move, the Wests Tigers have announced the re-signing of star playmaker Adam Doueihi. The 25-year-old versatile back has extended his contract with the club until the end of 2025, a decision that has sent shockwaves through the rugby league world.
Securing a Promising Talent
Wests Tigers Chief Executive Shane Flanagan, who had recently traveled to the UK in an attempt to offload underperforming players, has confirmed Doueihi’s contract extension. Flanagan praised Doueihi’s resilience and mental toughness, stating:
“It’s been a very long road back from injury for Adam and it was so pleasing to see him back out there last weekend. He is a tremendously talented footballer whose resilience and mental toughness cannot be questioned. And more importantly, he is a very good person.”
Doueihi, who has played 57 games for the club since joining in 2020, missed most of last season due to a serious knee injury. However, the club statement expressed delight at his return and the prospect of his future contributions.
Doueihi’s Excitement for the Future
Doueihi shared his enthusiasm about the years ahead, saying:
“I’m still only 25 and I know my best years are ahead of me. I’ll be working as hard as I can over the rest of this season and next season and I’m excited about the years ahead.”
This news will undoubtedly be a disappointment to the likes of Hull FC and Leigh Leopards, who were reportedly interested in securing Doueihi’s services for the 2025 season. However, the Wests Tigers have successfully retained the long-term future of one of their most promising young talents, a move that is sure to delight their supporters.
