Here’s the latest on Harley Reid’s contract as of mid-2025:
-
Harley Reid re-signed with West Coast Eagles through 2028, extending his contract beyond the remaining year on his prior deal. This was reported by multiple outlets in August 2025, with the deal described as a major win for the club [source: West Australian/major AFL outlets]. The reported figure suggested around $2 million per year, indicating a substantial long-term commitment by the Eagles.[1]
-
Prior to that extension, there was sustained talk of a record-breaking bid from rival Victorian clubs, including long-term, high-value offers. Reports in mid-2025 framed the negotiation landscape as among the league’s hottest, with some outlets mentioning offers in the vicinity of $20–$25 million over extended terms, though none of those bids materialized in a completed transfer.[2][3]
-
Industry commentary throughout 2025 also highlighted the unusual intensity of the contract discussions, noting Reid’s value to West Coast and speculation about a 10+ year framework, though the club publicly emphasized confidence in retaining him long-term. There were varied updates from media and pundits about progression, but no indication of an imminent departure from the Eagles at that time.[3][4]
