St Helens centre Sia Soliola has played down reports he is set to move back to the NRL at the end of the season.

Soliola, 27, took to Twitter to reveal he hasn’t yet decided on his plans for 2015, after coach Nathan Brown said the Samoan international had cited family reasons for wanting a return Down Under.

He tweeted: “Morning Tweeps.No decisions have been made on my future as of yet. Love this great club and people. But will know more in the next month or so.”

Brown said following the win over Castleford that a number of NRL clubs had revealed an interest in Soliola.

The former New Zealand international previously made 92 appearances for Sydney Roosters between 2005 and 2009, before moving to Saints ahead of the 2010 season.
