Channel 9 tonight reported Cherry-Evans met with Joe Kelly to discuss his change of heart and stay at the Sea Eagles.
Cherry-Evans has until round 13 to backflip on his switch before any contract becomes legally binding.
The backflip would be a massive blow to the Titans, who were banking on Cherry-Evans to be the new face of the club.
The bottom-placed Manly have already lost fellow half Kieran Foran, with the star five-eighth switching to Parramatta next year.
The Cherry-Evans news comes after Manly Immortal Bob Fulton announced he is returning to Brookvale after a 15-year absence.
