Aaron Schoupp has joined Manly on a two-year deal after Gold Coast granted the centre's request for a release.

The 22-year-old arrived at the Titans last season, but had struggled for opportunities in 2024 under new coach Des Hasler.

Schoupp has played only two of a possible 10 games this NRL season, with Harley Smith-Shields, Brian Kelly and AJ Brimson all preferred as centre options.

The Sea Eagles finalised Schoupp's move on Monday to help bolster their stocks in the outside backs. Winger Jason Saab is sidelined until round 14 with a shoulder injury, while Tom Trbojevic's hamstring issue has forced Tolu Koula out of the centres and into fullback.

"Aaron adds depth to our squad as we have got a few injuries to our outside backs at the moment,'' said Manly coach Anthony Seibold.

Schoupp played his last game for Gold Coast in the 28-24 loss to Newcastle at Magic Round, his 20th appearance for the club and 52nd NRL game since making his debut for Canterbury in 2021.
