Tino Fa’asuamaleaui made his NRL debut last round and played for just 27 minutes. Yet, the 19-year-old already has offers from rival executives north of one-million dollars.

At nearly 200 cm and just over 100 kg, the young forward drew the eye of scouts from many clubs, including the New Zealand Warriors, as reported by Fox Sports' James Hooper.

The Storm currently have the young player under contract through to the 2020 season at $110,000 and $250,000 per season. They'll be hoping that the opportunity to play alongside Craig Bellamy and Cameron Smith at one of the best NRL clubs is enough to entice him to stay.

All clubs will have the ability to offer Fa’asuamaleaui contracts on November first and we will then know what he priorities. Until then, we can just sit back and watch him grow.

His second career NRL match is next week against the Gold Coast Titans.
