Parramatta fans, rejoice! The “Foxx” is here to stay — and the blue and gold faithful couldn’t be prouder.
In a move that has sent shockwaves through the NRL community, superstar winger Josh Addo-Carr has officially inked a long-term deal with the Parramatta Eels, ending weeks of speculation about his future. The electric speedster, known for his blistering pace, infectious energy, and game-changing flair, has committed his prime years to the club in what is being hailed as one of the biggest signings in Parramatta’s modern history.
The deal, believed to span four years, ensures Addo-Carr will remain in Sydney’s west until the end of 2029, solidifying the Eels’ ambitions to rebuild a championship-caliber squad around elite talent and proven leadership.
Parramatta coach Brad Arthur couldn’t contain his excitement, describing Addo-Carr’s extension as a “massive boost” for the team’s culture and attacking arsenal.
“Josh brings more than just speed — he brings belief, energy, and leadership. He’s the type of player who lifts the whole group just by being in the room,” Arthur said. “Having him commit long-term shows how much he believes in what we’re building here.”
Addo-Carr, affectionately known as The Foxx, expressed pure gratitude and emotion after signing the deal.
“This is home now,” he said with a smile. “From the moment I came here, the fans, the boys, the club — everyone made me feel part of something special. I’m here to win, to inspire, and to give everything I’ve got for this jersey.”
The 29-year-old has already made an immense impact since joining Parramatta, not only with his highlight-reel tries but also with his leadership and off-field influence. His connection with fans has been particularly strong, with Addo-Carr frequently engaging in community events and youth programs across Western Sydney.
Eels Chairman Sean McElduff called the extension a “statement of intent,” emphasizing the club’s determination to keep top-tier talent within its ranks as it pushes for premiership success.
With Addo-Carr now locked in long-term, the Eels’ backline looks set to remain one of the most feared in the league — fast, dynamic, and bursting with confidence.
As the new season approaches, one thing is certain: Josh Addo-Carr is blue and gold for good — and Parramatta’s roar just got a whole lot louder.
