Spencer Leniu has officially re-signed with the Sydney Roosters, committing to a lucrative four-year contract that solidifies his future with one of the NRL’s most storied clubs.
The deal, which reportedly includes a significant financial upgrade, underscores Leniu’s standing as one of the premier forwards in the league and a cornerstone of the Roosters’ plans moving forward.
The 23-year-old Leniu has developed a reputation as one of the most dynamic and explosive middle forwards in the NRL. Known for his devastating running game and ability to make post-contact meters, Leniu has been a game-changer in the forward pack. His high-energy performances and physicality have made him an invaluable asset, and his re-signing is a major win for the Roosters.
Leniu’s decision to re-commit to the Roosters comes amid speculation that other clubs, including the Penrith Panthers, were vying for his signature. However, the Roosters’ offer, coupled with their vision for success, proved too compelling for Leniu to pass up. “The Roosters have been incredible for my development as a player and a person,” Leniu said. “I’m excited to continue this journey with them and contribute to the success we’re building. This club is all about excellence, and I’m proud to be part of it.”
Sydney Roosters head coach Trent Robinson praised Leniu’s decision to stay and highlighted his importance to the team’s future. “Spencer is a rare talent who brings energy, power, and passion every time he steps onto the field. He’s exactly the kind of player we want at this club, and we’re thrilled he’s committed to us long-term,” Robinson said. “The best is yet to come for him, and we’re excited to see what he’ll achieve in the years ahead.”
The four-year contract reportedly makes Leniu one of the highest-paid forwards in the league, a reflection of his value and potential. For the Roosters, the deal is part of their broader strategy to assemble a roster capable of competing for premierships consistently. Leniu’s presence will be central to that effort, as his ability to dominate in the middle of the field provides a strong platform for the team’s attacking and defensive structures.
As the Roosters prepare for the upcoming season, Leniu’s re-signing serves as a statement of intent. Fans will be eager to see the young star continue to evolve and deliver standout performances in the iconic tricolor jersey.
