In-demand Essendon defender Adam Saad is reportedly "leaning towards" Carlton as several clubs circle the out-of-contract star.
Reporter Tom Browne spoke of the latest updates surrounding Saad on Triple M's Hot Breakfast, suggesting the Blues
โI mentioned Adam Saad yesterday, the Blues ramping up their efforts,โ Browne said.
โIโm told this morning that heโs leaning towards the Blues.
โHe hasnโt officially left the Bombers yet, but the Blues have made a very attractive offer.
โHeโs got four or five clubs into him.โ
It is understood that Saad is also on the radar of North Melbourne, while Essendon continue to press hard to retain their pacey defender.
Saad is believed to be after a five-year deal, with the Bombers only having offered a four-year contract to the 26-year-old.
