Super League Clubs Eye £50M Loan Amid NRL Investment Deal Rejection

Super League clubs are reportedly considering a £50 million loan package as an alternative to the £35 million investment deal previously offered by Australia's National Rugby League (NRL). The Rugby Football League (RFL) is actively engaged in discussions with the NRL regarding these significantly altered terms.

This shift in strategy comes after Super League club owners rejected the initial investment proposal last week. Details of this alternative vision, outlined in a document titled 'Project Magic' by Rugby League Commercial, are set to be discussed by the 14 club owners at an upcoming meeting. The move signals a potential restructuring of how the sport plans to fund its growth and development.
