The Parramatta Eels have signed former Warriors five-eighth Hayze Perham until the end of the 2022 season.

Perham departed the Auckland-based club earlier this month after a total of nine games since making his debut in 2019.

The Eels confirmed the coup of the 21-year-old on Wednesday, with the young half joining the Sydney club with immediate effect.

โ€œWe werenโ€™t in a position to offer Hayze a deal beyond this year as we have a number of young outside backs in our system so when he asked for a release we couldnโ€™t stand in his way to secure his future,โ€ Warriors recruitment manager Peter Oโ€™Sullivan said at the time of Perham's release.

โ€œWe thank him for his efforts with us over the last four seasons and wish him all the best with the next stage of his career.โ€

Perham is a versatile playmaker, who has previously featured as a winger and fullback as well as in the halves.
