The likely trade price for wantaway Fremantle forward Lachie Schultz has reportedly been revealed, as Collingwood continues to circle the contracted goalsneak.
Despite Schultz's trade request from Fremantle to Olympic Park this off-season, there is no guarantee of a trade deal being reached.
The 25-year-old is contracted at Cockburn for a further season before he is slated to enter unrestricted free agency in 2024.
There has been some ambiguity surrounding Schultz's cost, however, with Collingwood premiership forward Jack Ginnivan reportedly ruled out of any potential deal.

The Magpies have tabled the No. 19 selection at November's count to Fremantle in exchange for Schultz, according to AFL Media journalist Cal Twomey on Thursday.
Talks ongoing over Lachie Schultz’s trade to Collingwood - pick 19 has been tabled, with extra to come and be worked through. Will 19 and Pies’ future second-rounder be around where it lands? https://t.co/pEcPfAxF1z

Twomey added that Collingwood may have to include an additional future selection -- potentially a second-rounder -- to satisfy the Dockers enough to strike an agreement.
In addition to Schultz talks, the Dockers are also in the midst of discussions with St Kilda over the impending departure of wantaway wingman Liam Henry, who is looking to get to Moorabbin this year.
Meanwhile, the Magpies officially offloaded veteran Taylor Adams to the Sydney Swans via trade on Wednesday after he requested a trade to the Harbour City.
