GWS superstar Dylan Shiel has nominated Essendon as his preferred destination.
The 25-year-old is a free agent next season, although it looks as though a deal for the star midfielder will be completed this trade period.
Shiel met with manager Paul Connors on Tuesday, and has informed the Bombers of his willingness to join the club.
