Canterbury are poised to re-sign rising star Jacob Preston to a new long-term deal.
Preston, an early candidate for Dally M rookie-of-the-year, is expected to sign a new four-deal at Belmore on Friday afternoon.
The new contract starts from 2024.
“Jacob has settled into life at Belmore and the NRL seamlessly,” said Bulldogs CEO Aaron Warburton.
“He’s a pleasure to have around the place. His drive, professionalism and maturity is evident. He’s a true bulldog”.
The association between the player and Bulldogs was destiny given Preston’s great grandfather, Ernest Flint, was a former Canterbury Leagues Club president.
Preston will only be aged 26 when the new deal expires in 2027.
“Jake has found a home at Canterbury,” said Jacob’s father, Mark.
“He is a loyal kid who never wanted to leave. Canterbury gave him his chance and he won’t forgot that.
“I know Jake will stay committed, focused and respectful.
“You can tell that he loves the club by the way he is playing his football.”
Preston’s Bulldogs play Cronulla this Saturday at Accor Stadium.
Canterbury general manager of football, Phil Gould, has already foreshadowed Preston being a future captain of the club.
