That is according to Code Sports, who are reporting the Brookvale-based outfit are set to announce his fresh two-year deal in the coming days.
His new contract will see him remain at the helm of the Sea Eagles until the end of the 2027 season, with his current deal expiring at the end of 2025.
The 50-year-old’s fresh extension was reportedly announced by chief executive Tony Mestrov as the club’s AGM on Thursday night.
Manly were knocked out by the Roosters in the second week of the 2024 finals, with Seibold steering the Sea Eagles to post-season football in his second season at the helm.
Seibold’s extension comes after a turbulent season for the former Broncos coach, with contract negotiations breaking down mid-season.
Those talks were put on hold after Manly lost three games in-a-row, with their finals chances reducing by the week after sitting in 10th.
