Manly Sea Eagles have confirmed the signing of Kieran Foran on a one-year deal for the 2021 NRL season.

Foran, 30, made his NRL debut for the Sea Eagles in 2009 and went on to play 147 games for the club before leaving Manly at the end of the 2015 season. He has since played 213 NRL games for Parramatta Eels, New Zealand Warriors and Canterbury Bulldogs.

Foran said: “I am very excited about the opportunity to return to the Sea Eagles, a club that I hold close to my heart and have some great memories of.

“I’m looking forward to playing under Des once more as well as being part of a very talented playing squad at Manly. I can’t wait to pull on the maroon and white jersey again.”

Sea Eagles head coach Des Hasler added: “Kieran has done it all in the game from winning premierships to playing test football for New Zealand. He has played more than 200 NRL games so his experience is well documented.

“His knowledge of the game will be invaluable to all players in our squad.”
