Gold Coast defender Adam Saad has officially completed his move to Essendon.
In exchange for Saad, the Bombers have traded a future second round draft pick to the Suns.
The 23-year-old requested a trade to Victoria from the Suns earlier this month due to religious and family reasons.
โItโs really exciting and humbling to finally be on Essendonโs list, Iโm really grateful for the opportunity they have given me,โ Saad said.
โAs soon as I spoke to Essendon, I felt at home straight away.
โIโm really excited to be a part of such a great culture and club, and Iโm excited by the list and what weโre striving to do.
โIโm looking forward to coming in and earning the respect of my teammates, the coaches and everyone at the club, and trying to improve every day.โ
Saad has played 48 games in three seasons with the Gold Coast Suns, after being recruited via the 2014 Rookie Draft.
