Parramatta Eels star Mitchell Moses has announced his sudden departure from the team, a decision made with the mutual agreement of both parties. The shocking move comes as a surprise to fans and the NRL community, as Moses has been a cornerstone of the Eels’ lineup and one of the premier halfbacks in the competition.

Moses, known for his playmaking abilities, precision kicking, and leadership on the field, has been a pivotal figure in Parramatta’s recent successes. Since joining the Eels in 2017, he helped guide the team to multiple finals appearances and was instrumental in their push to the 2022 NRL Grand Final. His departure leaves a significant void in the team’s roster and raises questions about the future direction of both the player and the club.

The Eels issued a statement thanking Moses for his contributions over the years. “Mitchell has been an integral part of our team’s growth and success. While we are saddened to see him leave, we respect his decision and wish him all the best for what’s next,” the statement read.

Moses, in his own words, described the decision as one of the toughest he’s ever had to make. “Parramatta has been my home for years, and I’ll always cherish the memories and relationships I’ve built here. After much thought, I believe it’s the right time to explore new opportunities for my career and personal growth,” he said.

Speculation about Moses’s next move has already begun, with rumors linking him to both rival NRL clubs and international opportunities. For the Eels, the focus now shifts to finding a replacement capable of stepping into the massive shoes left by their star playmaker.
