The Warriors have confirmed they are after Sonny Bill Williams.

The superstar is free after the Toronto Wolfpack's Super League season was cut short.

Warriors chief executive Cameron George said they were interested in a short term deal, with the team desperately short on players.

Warriors players are even calling for Williams to "come home", with Kodi Nikorima sharing a mock image of the 34-year-old in a Warriors jersey.

But they'll have plenty of competition, with Williams' former sides, the Roosters and Bulldogs, both keen on his signature as well.
