Mitch McGovern has officially nominated Carlton as his preferred destination for the 2019 season.
McGovern's manager Colin Young confirmed his client would like to become a Blue in 2019 on SEN's Whateley.
โHe had a medical with the Carlton Football Club yesterday and it went fairly well and I know they had a meeting this morning and so Carltonโs his choice," Young told SEN'sย Whateley.
โWe will be trying to work with Adelaide and Carlton to get a suitable trade done.โ
McGovern requested a trade from the Crows after he lost faith in the club during the 2018 season.
The 23-year-old forward has been accused of beingย "hungry for cash" by former Crows coach Malcolm Blight.
But Young rubbished claims his client is leaving Adelaide for monetary gains.
โI know that Kane Cornes and Malcolm Blight and a few blokes in Adelaide have said heโs absolutely leaving for money,โ
โIf he was going to leave for money, he wouldโve got an extra million dollars to go to Fremantle last year so thatโs just rubbish.โ
โHeโs on a very good contract at the Crows, itโs extremely good, so itโs definitely not about the money.โ
โHis contract from Carlton will be much similar to the one heโs on at Adelaide, itโs more about the post code where he wants to live.โ
โItโll be somewhere between three and five years, it should be through after this morningโs meeting.โ
