Mitchell Says Hes Fit As Souths Nrl Stoush Drags On

## Mitchell Says He's Fit As Souths NRL Stoush Drags On South Sydney star Latrell Mitchell says he is fit and ready to play, despite the ongoing contract dispute between the club and his management. Mitchell has been at the center of a media storm in recent weeks, with reports suggesting he could leave the Rabbitohs at the end of the season. However, the fullback has rubbished those claims, saying he is committed to South Sydney and is focused on winning a premiership. "I'm fit and ready to play," Mitchell said. "I'm not going anywhere." Mitchell's comments come as the contract negotiations between the club and his management continue to drag on. The Rabbitohs have offered Mitchell a four-year deal worth around $1 million a season, but his management is reportedly seeking a five-year deal worth closer to $1.2 million a season. The two parties are still some way apart in their negotiations, and it is unclear when a resolution will be reached. In the meantime, Mitchell is adamant that he is not letting the contract dispute affect his on-field performances. "I'm just focused on playing footy," Mitchell said. "I'm not worried about anything else." Mitchell's comments will be a relief to South Sydney fans, who are desperate to see their star player stay at the club. The Rabbitohs have endured a difficult season on the field, winning just four of their first 12 games. However, Mitchell's return to fitness will be a major boost to their premiership hopes. Mitchell is one of the most dangerous players in the NRL, and his ability to create something out of nothing could be the difference between success and failure for the Rabbitohs this season.
