Reagan Campbell-Gillard has been granted a release from the final year of his contract with the Parramatta Eels.
After weeks of speculation regarding his future, the club confirmed on Tuesday morning that the prop will pursue opportunities with a rival club.
“I’m so thankful for the opportunity to come to a great club which helped me get my football back on track,” said Campbell-Gillard.

“I’ve really enjoyed my time at Parramatta, I’m grateful for the opportunities I’ve had and for the lifelong friendships I’ve made.
“I also want to thank the passionate Eels fanbase, it’s been a pleasure playing in front of them and I’ve appreciated all their support over the years.”
Parramatta general manager Mark O’Neil wished the best for the former NSW representative.
“While these decisions are never easy, we also wanted to ensure that Reagan had the opportunity to secure his future beyond the 2025 season,” he said.
“We thank Reagan for his dedicated service to the Eels and wish him, his partner Alira and their young family all the very best for the future.”
Campbell-Gillard made his debut for the Eels in 2020.

No other club has claimed his signature as of yet, however, Campbell-Gillard has been heavily linked with several clubs including the Broncos, Dolphins and Bulldogs.
He was heavily linked with a move to the Dragons in 2025 but the club has since confirmed that he will not be signing with them.
Campbell-Gillard’s management has informed clubs that the 31-year-old is searching for a three-year deal, which The Sydney Morning Herald reports puts the Cowboys out of the race as they were only willing to offer a two year deal.
The Broncos came into the equation late but now look a favourite to sign Campbell-Gillard to partner Payne Haas in the front row. Brisbane has also been linked to Storm premiership winner Christian Welch.
