Puna Vuli signed with the Utah Warriors for the 2019 MLR season, but did not feature. He returned the following year and appeared in 4 games before the 2020 season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Vuli returned to the Warriors for their 2021 campaign, but it was not until 2022 that he would see MLR game time again, starting 7 times in 13 games and completing 90 tackles while running for over 400m gained in possession.
