New Zealand scrum-half TJ Perenara has confirmed he is interested in a switch to rugby league after being approached by the Sydney Roosters.

The 29-year-old - part of the All Blacks squad at the last two World Cups - said he could return to rugby union in time for the 2023 tournament.

National Rugby League side Roosters contacted Perenara's management about joining them earlier this month.

Perenara told Stuff.co his interest was "definitely genuine".
