Brisbane Broncos are reportedly among four NRL clubs making a play for star Souths and NSW Blues hooker Damien Cook.

The move would link the 27-year-old with current coach Anthony Seibold, under whom Cook’s game has flourished.

Seibold will join the Broncos from 2020 but is contracted to coach Souths in 2019 before he and Wayne Bennett swap clubs the following season.

Cook’s manager Mario Tartak told The Daily Telegraph four clubs are chasing his client’s signature, including Souths.

“There has been a club that has come in late,” Tartak said. “I would be reluctant (to name the club) because we basically agreed not to say anything.

“We’re down to four clubs and that includes Souths. Two are in Sydney, one out of Sydney. “They are all strong offers.”

According to the Telegraph the club outside Sydney is the Broncos however Souths remain in a strong position to re-sign Cook for 2020.

Should the move north materialise it would raise questions over the future of incumbent Broncos hooker Andrew McCullough who is contracted until the end of the 2021 season.
