With the home stretch of the AFL season upon us, the league's trade news cycle is set to go up a gear as clubs begin to prepare for 2026 and beyond.
The year so far has seen some of the game's best players enter uncertain periods, whether they be under contract or not.
Just about every club has been linked to a rival player, or several, through trade rumours and reports this year, with fans keen to see who their team could add to their list.
With plenty of names included in the trade and free agency conversation in 2025, we've listed every player each AFL team has been tied to so far this season.

Like the Cats, Magpies and Bombers, the Hawks want to make a big splash this year, given the talented players they've been tied to.
Just like those mentioned clubs, Harley Reid and Zak Butters have been reported as players of interest to Hawthorn, who are looking to back up an aggressive 2024 player movement window.
West Coast forward Oscar Allen has met with Hawks coach Sam Mitchell as he weighs up his future out west, with Brisbane the other contender in the race for the Eagles skipper.
Contracted Carlton midfielder Sam Walsh is another who has been linked to Waverley, with clubs potentially weighing up moves 12 months prior to the onballer hitting free agency, much like Butters.
