Penrith Panthers is pleased to announce that Izack Tago has signed a three-year contract extension with the club.
The 21-year-old two-time premiership winner, who was already contracted with the club for 2025, has committed to the Panthers until at least the end of the 2028 season.
“I’m extremely happy to re-sign with the club. Even though I was already signed here for a couple of years, it’s great to lock in my future at my home club for another few years,” Tago said.
“Most of the team are Panthers juniors and we’ve all got a special relationship, so for me to stay here for as long as I can is something I’m excited about.”
A St Marys junior, Tago has progressed from the Panthers junior development system to an international representative, who has played 49 NRL games for the Panthers and three Test matches for Samoa.
In addition to re-signing with the club, Tago will celebrate his 50th NRL game when the Panthers face the Eels on Friday night at BlueBet Stadium.
“We’re excited to see another local junior committing his long-term future to the club, and we’re looking forward to seeing him remain in Panthers colours until at least the end of the 2028 season,” Panthers General Manager of Rugby League Shane Elford said.
“Izack’s progression is another great example of the build from within mantra of our club. He has come through our junior development system and progressed to the highest level of playing for country.
“We’re delighted that he has shown his commitment to the Panthers by re-signing with the club.”
