NRL champions Penrith Panthers have been named as the club chasing St Helens utility Moses Mbye.
Peter Lang, from the Western Weekender, has linked Mbye with a move to Penrith which would see him reunite with former boss Ivan Cleary whom he was with at Wests Tigers.
Lang posted on X: “MBYE A PANTHER? There’s speculation that Moses Mbye could be on his way back to the NRL from the UK Super League. I’ve heard from a source that Penrith have made enquires about bringing Mbye to the Panthers as extra cover for Nathan Cleary. Mbye had a short stint under Ivan at the Tigers in 2018. Watch this space.”
