As many as 32 players have been reported, named, listed or floated as trade targets this year, with that figure likely to grow in the coming months as AFL clubs begin to plan their lists for 2024 and beyond.

Several highly sought-after names have turned down external advances this year to make the open market even more competitive, while five restricted free agents are yet to recommit.

While unlikely to be as manic as last year's trade window, talk around this year's free agency and trade space is starting to build.

Here's who each club has been linked with so far in 2023.

Adelaide

The Crows haven't been heavily tied to targets this year outside of Essendon free agent Mason Redman, who re-signed with the Bombers on a new five-year deal last month to turn down Adelaide's advances. The West Lakes side could be shopping for a taller defender, given recent setbacks to trio Nick Murray, Jordon Butts and Tom Doedee, with the latter also no certainty of being at Adelaide next year as he weighs up his own options through free agency. Western Bulldogs utility Bailey Williams has also been raised as a potential target for the Crows.
