Young Hawthorn key defender Kaiden Brand could find himself at a new club this trade period, according to AFL.com.au, with contract negotiations stalling with the Hawks.

The 22-year-old key defender is out of contract and has reportedly been unable to come to an agreement on a new deal with the Hawks.

"Industry sources believe the South Australian is sitting on an offer from a rival club given the strong demand for key defenders this year," the reports claims.

AFL.com.au reports thatย Lions, Saints, Kangaroos, Bulldogs, Demonsย and Dockersย are among the clubs that may be interested in the defender.

Brand played 11 games this season, after making his debut in Round 7 against Richmond after four years on the Hawks' list without a senior game. He was recruited with pick No.66 in the 2012 National Draft.

The 198cm key position player is not the only defender who could be out the door at Waverley Park, withย Angus Litherland and Matt Spangher both yet to be re-signed by the club.
