Wests Tigers have today confirmed that Moses Mbye will join the club in the coming days.

Mbye, who recently signed a four-year playing contract with Wests Tigers will join the club following this weekend's NRL round once paperwork has been finalised.

The 24-year-old will play his 94th and final NRL game for the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs on Saturday before joining Wests Tigers ahead of the Representative Round break.

Wests Tigers Head Coach Ivan Cleary welcomed Mbye to the club.

"Moses is an impressive young man and we're really happy that he's able to join us at this stage of the season," said Cleary. "We look forward to having him join the club in the coming days and get into training with his new teammates."

Wests Tigers CEO Justin Pascoe said he looked forward to having Mbye at the club.

"I'd like to commend Moses for the way that he's handled himself during this process," said Pascoe. "It's great that he's able to come across to Wests Tigers now as he'll be a part of our club for many years to come."

Adds another option in attack. Brooks, Reynolds and Mbye.

Liddle if he can get his act together in the coming weeks.

What do he and the Dogs get out of him playing tomorrow besides him getting booed out of the ground.

Reality is that Mbye is the only one for them that looks like scoring.

They get nothing out of resting him.

No risk for Dogs. All the risk is for the Tigers

Hopefully he comes injury free.

Moses Mbye is on Friday expected to finalise a mid-season switch to the Wests Tigers, but not before a final farewell for Canterbury against the Gold Coast Titans at Belmore Sportsground on Saturday.

NRL.com understands Mbye, who is reluctantly departing the Bulldogs to help ease the club's salary cap predicament, has finally agreed to make an early switch to help the Tigers in their pursuit of finals football in 2018.

The release documentation is expected to be formalised on Friday.

Mbye had signed a four-year deal with the Tigers from next year, however, it's in the Tigers and Bulldogs' best interest for Mbye to switch clubs before the June 30 trade deadline.

While the Tigers boost their hopes of playing finals football, the Bulldogs get the chance to begin forward paying 2019 contracts to help their dire salary cap situation.

Mbye was reluctant to leave the Bulldogs prior to the end of the season out of loyalty to his teammates, however, there has been mounting pressure on the fullback to make the change immediately.

He is expected to play his final game for the Bulldogs against the Gold Coast Titans at Belmore Sportsgound on Saturday, however, an injury could throw a spanner in the works.
His Bulldogs teammate, Aaron Woods, was expected to join the Cronulla Sharks this week, however, the two clubs haven't been able to reach an agreement over the portion of Woods' contract they will pay.

Does anyone think the Bulldogs are going to cause themselves some long term pain with the direction they are heading

How could anyone trust them to keep a single commitment
