Muizz Mustapha looks set to become the latest player whose future lies away from Leeds Rhinos beyond this season. The prop made a big impact in last weekend's win over Wigan Warriors, barrelling over for a try in the closing stages, a moment which left coach Rohan Smith beaming in the Headingley stands.
But Smith confirmed on Wednesday that, along with hooker Brad Dwyer, Mustapha has not been offered a new contract beyond the expiry of his existing one, which runs to the end of the current Super League season. It means that come November, Mustapha will be on the hunt for a new club.
"We haven't made Muzzy an offer," Smith confirmed. "He's free to explore his options there. It's always a moving thing the roster, but at this point we haven't made him an offer." When pushed on whether Leeds could change their minds if Mustapha continues to perform in the manner he did last week however, Smith was coy.
