Gold Coast NRL recruit David Fifita has been released without charge after being arrested following a trespassing incident.

Gold Coast recruit David Fifita has been released without charge after being arrested at a home in the city's south.

Queensland police say they were called to the Clear Island Waters home around 8am on Sunday following reports of a man trespassing at the property.

Fifita, 20, was arrested nearby and taken into custody before being released a short time later although police indicated their investigations were ongoing.

The Queensland State of Origin representative is preparing for his first NRL season with the Titans after making a big-money move from rivals Brisbane.

In a brief statement, the Titans said they were aware of the incident and had notified the NRL's integrity unit.

It's not the first time Fifita has been in hot water during an off-season after he was arrested in Bali in November 2019 following an altercation outside a nightclub.

He spent two days in custody before being released following negotiations between a Broncos official and security guard Dani Irawan, who alleged he was assaulted by Fifita.
