The Daily Telegraph is reporting that Manly has landed the signature of Bulldogs winger Blake Wilson on a two-year deal starting in 2026, strengthening their depth in the outside backs.
The 24-year-old will join the Sea Eagles after not being offered a contract extension by Canterbury, ending his three-year stint with the club.

Wilson debuted in 2023 and has played 27 first-grade games, scoring 12 tries, but has had limited opportunities to perform in 2025.
In recent months, Wilson has slipped further and further down the depth chart for Cameron Ciraldo in Belmore.
Being still so early in his career, Wilson has room to develop under a new system, but it is unclear at this stage whether or not it will be Anthony Seibold leading that charge in 2026.
At Manly, he will compete in a crowded outside back room, being tutored by veterans such as Tom Trbojevic and Reuben Garrick.
His career highlights include a debut season hat-trick against the Rabbitohs in 2023 and a 2024 double in a tight win over the Eels.

Wilson's move comes after he was linked to the Eels at the end of last season, though Manly ultimately secured his signature.
With his best football still ahead of him, Wilson will aim to turn potential into results when he arrives on the Northern Beaches in 2026.
