The Parramatta Eels are reportedly circling a number of Brisbane Broncos stars, with the club exploring short-term options to bolster their roster for the 2026 season.
According to league sources, Parramatta have shown particular interest in several Broncos players coming off contract, with the Eels eager to secure experienced campaigners on one-year deals to provide depth and spark across their backline and forward pack.
The move comes as Parramatta continue to reshape their squad under pressure to return to finals football, with officials identifying targeted short-term signings as a way to cover key gaps while long-term development plans remain in motion.
While no official names have been confirmed, speculation suggests the Eels could chase players with representative experience who may be squeezed out of Brisbane due to salary cap constraints.
Club insiders believe the opportunity to add proven talent—even on short-term arrangements—could prove decisive in helping the Eels re-establish themselves as a consistent top-eight side.
Negotiations are expected to intensify over the coming weeks as both clubs weigh their options ahead of the 2026 NRL season.
