“I was really impressed with the direction the Eels are heading under Steve Kearney,” Sandow said.
“He is clear on where he wants to take the team and I’m excited to be a part of that future.
“I want to thank South Sydney for everything they’ve done for me – they gave me my start in the NRL.
“It was a very hard decision for my family and me but I’m really looking forward to joining the Eels next year.
“But for now my focus remains with Souths and I am 100 per cent committed to the rest of the season with my teammates.”
Pirtek Eels coach Steve Kearney said;
“Chris is a young halfback with a lot of potential and he’ll be a great asset with regards to what we’re building here at the club.
“This is the first step in our recruitment drive and we’re looking forward to building on the solid talent base we already have.”
Pirtek Eels Chief Executive Officer Paul Osborne said Sandow’s signing was an endorsement of the club’s structure and direction.
“Chris’s signing is great for our club and great for our future,” Osborne said.
“He is one of the top halfbacks in the competition and the fact he’s decided to join us is a sign we’re doing a lot of things right at this club.”
