Essendon speedster Adam Saad is expected to put an end to speculation about his future and re-sign with the club.

The out-of-contract Bomber is said to have attracted interest from Carlton but is now set to renew his contract with the Bombers, according to AFL Media's Damian Barrett.

โ€œI fully expect Adam Saad to now stay,โ€ Barrett said onย Channel 9โ€™s Sunday Footy Show.

โ€œWe know that there are good offers for him to leave but in the last week or so I think Essendon have done enough to keep him, thatโ€™s the way Iโ€™m reading it right now.โ€

The news isn't as bright for Joe Daniher and Orazio Fantasia who are tipped to leave the Bombers at the end of the season.

Daniher is a restricted free agent, while Fantasia is contracted until the end of 2021.

โ€œI still donโ€™t see either (Orazio) Fantasia or Joe (Daniher) staying,โ€ Barrett said.

โ€œDaniher has had two years to work himself out, when he asks for a week of downtime, we know that usually means heโ€™s in discussions with a team in the finals.โ€
