Zak Hardaker has reiterated his desire to secure a long-term deal with Leeds Rhinos. The England international is currently on a short-term deal at Headingley until the end of the season, but admitted to Rugby League Live there have been 'little dialogues' about what happens in 2023.
But in terms of his own position, Hardaker stressed that with him settled in West Yorkshire and close to his young family once again after spending time at Wigan Warriors, he is keen to remain a Rhino. "I've no stress in my life right now, I just turn up for training and have a smile on my face," he said.
"I'd like to stay, yes. I've not had much conversations with Rohan (Smith) about it yet, though we've had little dialogues about what the future might look like. But I think that'll probably come with conversations with Gary (Hetherington).
