The British union representing former Toronto Wolfpack players says it is close to a settlement in excess of $1 million with majority owner David Argyle over unpaid wages.
Players and staff on the failed transatlantic rugby league team have not been paid since June 10.
Peter Davies, a senior organizer for the GMB union, says Argyle has submitted a formal offer that "in principal" is acceptable to the players.
