Warriors captain Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is understood to have signed the most lucrative deal in the club's history.

1 NEWS understands his new four-year deal, which starts in 2019, is worth at least $4 million.

It eclipsed the three-year contract the Warriors offered former fullback Sam Tomkins in 2013, which included a world record transfer fee of $1.3 million.
