Boom Roosters centre Tautau Moga is on the verge of accepting a lucrative deal to join the Sharks in 2015.
Moga, still only 20, has had two knee reconstructions in the last two seasons and has barely played any football since bursting onto the scene in spectacular style two years ago.
But he has strung five games together for Roosters' feeder club Newtown since overcoming his latest injury setback and has looked a fine prospect again.
His signing shapes as a real coup for the struggling Sharks, who have lacked try scoring clout in the centres for several seasons.
Sadly, his decision will be another body blow for fellow strugglers Canberra - they were also in the hunt for Moga and have again come up short in their bid to land a class player.
The Roosters didn't want to lose Moga but already have two Test centres on their books in Michael Jennings and Shaun Kenny-Dowall - and another superb player set to join them in 2015 in former Raiders bad boy Blake Ferguson.
