Gold Coast will listen to offers for
Peter Wright during the trade period, knowing they will likely have to pay a portion of his salary cap if he moves clubs.
Wright has two more years on a contract foxfooty.com.au understands is worth more than $500,000 per season.
It’s almost certain a rival club would refuse to foot the half-a-million dollar bill, but they could get him for a fraction of the price.
The Suns are open to trading the 24-year-old if he declares he would like to explore opportunities elsewhere.
Wright has slipped back in the pecking order in 2020 and hasn’t featured in Stuart Dew’s best 22 at all.
Victorian clubs have long believed he will be gettable in November’s trade period.
Essendon and Collingwood have told agents they would like another big man,
while Richmond may need to look for a Toby Nankervis replacement if he doesn’t re-sign.Wright, who is 203cm tall, has booted 85 goals in 66 games for the Suns since he was selected with Pick 8 in the 2014 National Draft.
Rival clubs see him more as a forward who can pinch-hit in the ruck rather than the other way around.
