CARLTON is still where it started with sourcing a trade for full-forward Brendan Fevola, who has two years remaining on his contract.

General manager of football operations Steven Icke confirmed on Wednesday morning that a deal to move the 2009 Coleman Medallist on was no closer.

"Really, at this stage there has been no further development," Icke told afl.com.au on Wednesday. "We still haven't had any contact, so it's pretty much as it was on Monday.

"We've met with clubs and they know our position and at this stage, we've had no enquiries.

"Everything you read in the newspapers is exactly how it is at the moment. Collingwood has had some interest, but that's about as far as it goes at this point in time.

"Anything else is pure speculation."

Some of that speculation has had Fevola linked to the Sydney Swans, which formally parted with premiership forward Barry Hall on Tuesday.

Other than finding a home for Fevola, Icke said Carlton was not involved in any other negotiations at this point.

"We've got the Brock McLean deal done, so that's good that's out of the way and it allows us to get onto other matters this week," he said.

"But right now, that's the one (the Fevola deal) everyone is wanting an update on, but at this stage there is no update.

"There's nothing other than what it was on Monday: we've met with clubs and there are a couple of clubs with a little bit of interest and that's it."
