Former Fiji Bati star Jarryd Hayne, who's accused of attacking a woman in her bedroom, will face a retrial in Sydney on rape charges.

Prosecutors confirmed in the Newcastle District Court that they would pursue two rape charges against Hayne after his first trial ended in a hung jury.

The jury of eight men and four women was discharged on December 7th after a two- week trial when they failed to reach a verdict.
