Although he acknowledges he wouldn’t rule out a potential move to rugby union, Penrith Panthers coach Ivan Cleary maintains his son Nathan won’t be leaving until at least the conclusion of his contract with the NRL powerhouses….
Penrith Panthers coach Ivan Cleary has made it clear that while he’s open-minded about his son Nathan Cleary potentially exploring a switch to rugby union in the future, any such move won’t be happening before the end of his current contract.
The star halfback, widely regarded as one of the NRL’s top talents, remains committed to the Panthers for the foreseeable future. Ivan emphasized that Nathan has unfinished business with the club and is fully focused on contributing to its continued success.
Speculation about a code switch has grown in recent years, especially with rugby union showing interest in league stars, but for now, Cleary’s loyalty lies firmly with Penrith.
