CONFIRMED: The sports world is ablaze with excitement over the latest update on Sydney Roosters star James Tedesco. What was once mere speculation and rumour is now officially validated…
Rugby league fans can finally stop guessing — the future of Sydney Roosters captain James Tedesco has just been sealed, and it’s sending shockwaves through the NRL community.
After weeks of speculation about a potential early retirement or a shock move to another club, the Roosters have officially confirmed that Tedesco will extend his stay at the club through the end of the 2026 NRL season. The veteran fullback, who has captained both the Roosters and New South Wales in State of Origin, has committed to leading the Bondi-based side for at least two more years.
This latest update comes at a time when many believed 2025 could be his final season, especially with rising star Joseph Sua’ali’i eyeing more minutes at fullback before his move to rugby union. But Tedesco’s re-signing quashes those rumours and reaffirms the club’s faith in the 31-year-old’s leadership and elite-level performances.
Roosters head coach Trent Robinson said: “Teddy is the heart of this team — his consistency, toughness, and commitment to the jersey are unmatched. We’re thrilled he’s staying to lead the next phase of our journey.”
Tedesco himself addressed the announcement, stating: “I’ve still got plenty of footy left in me. The Roosters are my home, and I’m excited about what we’re building here. I want to be part of the club’s success — now and into the future.”
Fans have taken to social media in celebration, with many calling the extension a “massive win” for the Roosters and a stabilising move as the club looks to bounce back into premiership contention.
This confirmation not only settles the debate about Tedesco’s future — it lights a fire under the Roosters’ 2025 campaign, as they now look to rally around their skipper and chase silverware with clarity and confidence.
