NRL star and Warriors captain Roger Tuivasa-Sheck will sign with New Zealand Rugby with the aim to represent the All Blacks at the 2023 World Cup after months of secret negotiations.

According to a Daily Telegraph report, Tuivasa-Sheck will play this season in the NRL before transitioning to the 15-man code.

The 27-year-old was granted permission by the Warriors to speak only with rugby union, despite his existing contract with the Warriors not running out until the end of 2022.

The Warriors fullback has been linked to switching codes before, once in 2017 and also at the end of the 2020 NRL season.
