The Wests Tigers have secured the long-term future of Adam Doueihi, with the versatile playmaker signing a contract extension that will keep him at the club until the end of the 2029 NRL season.
The 27-year-old has been a key figure for the Tigers since arriving in 2020 from the South Sydney Rabbitohs, providing leadership and versatility across the spine and backline.
Loyalty Rewarded
While Doueihi has been one of the Tigers’ most influential players during his tenure, his time at the club has also been marked by a series of serious injuries that interrupted his momentum during key periods of his career. Despite those setbacks, the Lebanon international has remained an important leader within the squad whenever fit.
His ability to play in the halves, at fullback or in the centres has made him one of the club’s most valuable assets over the past several seasons.
Interest from Rival Clubs
Doueihi’s contract situation had attracted attention across the NRL, with reports linking him to rival clubs including the St George Illawarra Dragons and the Penrith Panthers.
However, the Tigers have now shut down that speculation by securing the playmaker long-term as the club continues its rebuild under coach Benji Marshall.
Key Piece of the Tigers’ Future
Doueihi’s re-signing adds stability to a Tigers squad aiming to climb back into finals contention after showing signs of improvement in recent seasons.
With experience, leadership and positional flexibility, the extension ensures Doueihi will remain a central figure as the club continues building toward sustained success over the coming years.
The Wests Tigers kick off their season against the North Queensland Cowboys at 2pm tomorrow after a first round bye.
