Roosters forward Wiliie Mason has flown to Japan to negotiate with cashed-up rugby union clubs.

He will miss the Sydney Roosters' official return to training scheduled to start on Monday.

Australia's Daily Telegraph has revealed that Mason was granted a week's leave by Roosters management to travel overseas with his manager Greg Keenan.

Mason flew into Tokyo over the weekend but will return for the Roosters training session on November 9.

Should Mason obtain a deal, it is understood he would be released from the final year of his Roosters contract.
