GOLD Coast youngster Maverick Weller could be on the move, with up to five clubs showing interest in him.
Weller, who was one of 12 players signed to Gold Coast as a 17-year-old access selection in 2009, has struggled for a regular game at the Suns.
Weller's future is one of the deals that could take shape after bigger name players such as Kurt Tippett have found new homes.
The former Tasmanian was appointed to the Suns' leadership group in its inaugural season of 2011 but has played just 28 games in its first two years.
His manager, Tim Hazell from Velocity Sports, said up to five clubs had shown interest in the solidly built midfielder.
"Hawthorn have expressed interest in him but with the Grand Final last week we haven't really been able to sit down and firm up how strong that interest is yet," Hazell said.
"He's just seeing what opportunities are out there for him. He hasn't ruled out going back to the Suns but he just wanted to dip his toe in the water."
But Hawthorn football manager Mark Evans denied discussing Weller with Hazell.
"I've not spoken to Tim Hazell and I didn't know he was Mav Weller's agent," Evans said.
Gold Coast has to reduce its list from 46 to 39 before the first list lodgment on October 31.
Midfielder Josh Caddy has requested a trade to a Victorian club, while Hayden Jolly has reportedly asked to return to his native South Australia.
Last month Gold Coast football manager Marcus Ashcroft said the Suns faced some tough decisions on young players who were coming out of contract.
"We still need to make some considered calls on a few of our players that haven’t been contracted. Some will be re-contracted and some won't," Ashcroft told AFL.com.au in September.
"Because those guys have been here for a while and we've put time into them and they were highly regarded - that's why we got them - we haven't made categoric decisions at this stage."
