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.

The Magpies flagged for a quieter trade period this off-season, looking for bargain buys and cheaper options to bolster their list under newly-appointed coach Craig McRae.
Collingwood have landed Bulldog Patrick Lipinski and Cats tall Nathan Kreuger this exchange window, while also heading to the draft to add further youth.
Brander would be seen as a viable addition to fill either multiple roles across all thirds of the ground, giving Lipinski and Kreuger more definition in their placing at the Holden Centre.
Brander is able to offer plenty of run for the Magpies and can also slot into a key-position to aid either defence or attack for McRae's side.
With emerging gun Josh Daicos likely to land more minutes deeper into the midfield, Brander could slot into a spot on McRae's wing for 2021.
