West Coast utility Jarrod Brander is believed to be heading for the exit at Lathlain Park, with a return to Victoria potentially on the cards.
Reports emerged earlier this month that the 22-year-old would not be offered a new deal past the 2021 season, with Eagles chief executive Trevor Nisbett stating the club will work with Brander throughout the trade window.
"If Jarrod is a tradable player, we'll see if someone's got some interest in Jarrod," Nisbett told ABC Radio.
"After that we'll see what happens from that point on, but we'll make decisions post the trade period."

Brander first joined the Eagles via the 2017 National Draft as a first-round selection and tall-forward prospect, but has since emerged into a formidable winger for West Coast.

Despite working their way back from an extensive finals drought last year, the Saints entered 2021 with the second oldest list in the competition.
An injection of youth and speed could be what places the Saints back on track next year, with a midfield reshuffle looking imminent ahead of 2022.
The Saints will look to build around star onballer and best and fairest winner Jack Steele, with Zak Jones and Jack Billings also commanding minutes in the middle.
Duo Seb Ross and Luke Dunstan were placed on the wings throughout periods of this season, with renowned runner Brad Hill finding time in defence to offer the Saints attack from the back.
Dunstan's time at Moorabbin is over, leaving an opening in Brett Ratten's engine room for the 2022 season.
The Saints could utilise Brander as the ideal option out wide, while also moving him forward to work alongside Max King, Tim Membrey and Rowan Marshall as an attacking asset.
