Nathan Cleary linked to Penrith Panthers extension as brother Jett signs

Nathan Cleary, the four-time NRL champion with the Penrith Panthers, may be influenced to extend his career with the club following the signing of his younger brother, Jett Cleary. Nathan Cleary, whose current contract expires after 2027, noted that the opportunity to train with Jett daily and potentially play alongside him in the halves is something he would ‘cherish’.

In addition to contract speculation, Cleary remains a central figure in the NRL finals discussion. Following a season where he earned the Wally Lewis Medal and Brad Fittler Medal, rival captains have identified him as a key player to watch during the upcoming September finals series. His consistency this year has positioned him as a frontrunner for major individual honors, including the Dally M Medal.
