Nathan Cleary removes father-son clause from Panthers contractGETTY IMAGES Nathan Cleary has committed his future to the Panthers. Penrith teenage sensation Nathan Cleary has opted against reactivating a get-out clause in his contract that would have allowed him to follow his father to another NRL club. Cleary, who recently extended his deal with the Panthers until the end of 2019, originally had a get-out clause in his contract that expired on June 30 that granted him permission to leave if Ivan Cleary landed a job at another club. While Jamie Soward still has another year to run on his contract, the English Super League is looming as an option for the Panthers playmaker. The Panthers traded James Segeyaro to Leeds and paid the club a £40,000 (NZ$75,000) transfer fee to lure Hardaker to Penrith for the remainder of the season.
