The Dragons have emerged as strong contenders to sign Wests Tigers star Stefano Utoikamanu, with reports indicating they are preparing a multi-year, $4.5 million deal for the prop. Utoikamanu, granted permission by the Tigers to explore options, has drawn interest from several clubs including the Raiders and Storm. The Dragons have shown serious interest, potentially offering $100,000 more per season than the Tigers’ initial offer of $4 million over five years. Utoikamanu, seeking success after a challenging stint with the Tigers, has also attracted attention from Canberra and Melbourne, with negotiations ongoing.
