Armed with a get-out clause, Milford asked for a release from the Raiders six weeks ago to return to Brisbane next year to care for Halo, who had a heart attack 18 months ago. Reports have suggested Milford may backflip on seeking a release, but Ayoub said his client had not indicated he wanted to remain in Canberra.
"As it stands, Anthony has asked for a release and that has not changed," Ayoub said.
"Whether that changes or not is something we will all find out in the near future.
"The coach matters in nine out of 10 situations, so it was important for Anthony to meet Ricky. He now has a good appreciation for the type of person Ricky is and the care he has for his players.
"But the clause was inserted there for a purpose. Anthony will make a decision sooner rather than later and it won't suit everybody."
