Broncos veteran Alex Glenn is set to knock back offers from rivals to remain at Red Hill, according to The Courier Mail.

It is being reported that he is likely to sign a new two-year extension.

The 31-year old could have earned more if he moved to a Sydney club, but the Broncos are now confident his new two-year deal will see him retire as a one-game player.

The new deal would make him just the fourth player in Broncos history to notch 300 games for the club, joining Only Darren Lockyer (355), Corey Parker (347) and Sam Thaiday (304).

Glenn is coming off a consistent 2019 campaign, playing 21 games in the centre and back half as the Broncos were cruelled by injuries.

He told The Courier-Mail last month that he was keen to remain at Brisbane.

“I know with all the signings this year (retaining Matt Lodge, Tevita Pangai Jnr and Jake Turpin), the money will be drying up,” he said.

“I want to stay, 100 per cent. That’s what I am hoping for but it’s up to my manager to sort that out and come to an agreement with the club to keep me here.

“I’m 31, it can be a harsh industry and a lot of players have been forced to go overseas. Me personally, I have a lot more to give in this game. Age is just a number and I feel great.

“I am still playing some good football personally and it is great to know other clubs are showing interest in me.”
