Dual premiership Lion Callum Ah Chee has informed Brisbane he wants a trade to Adelaide.

Ah Chee, 27, has officially informed Brisbane of his trade request, according to reports on Thursday, just days after the Lions went back-to-back on Saturday.

The out of contract forward had been linked to the Crows in the lead up to last weekend's grand final.

After 45 games with Gold Coast between 2016-2019, the former top 10 draft pick has made 124 appearances for the Lions, claiming his first flag in a breakout campaign through 2024.

Adding to heroic late moments in last year's preliminary final, Ah Chee kicked four majors in Brisbane's ten goal demolition of the Swans 12 months ago before playing a solid role further down the ground in the early arm wrestle against Geelong at the weekend.

AFL.com.au's Cal Twomney reported the Crows have tabled a five-year deal to Ah Chee.

The Eagles were also rumoured to be interested in bringing the West Australian's services back to his home state.

Elsewhere, Jamarra Ugle-Hagan has headed to the Gold Coast to meet with the Suns in what is reportedly shaping as a potential double pick up for this year's debut finalists alongside wantaway Demon Christian Petracca.

Ugle-Hagan, who didn't play a game of football at any level in 2025, is still contracted to the Bulldogs and any trade would carry complexities regarding his lucrative current deal, while Petracca has informed Melbourne of his desire for a trade - having already headed to Adelaide this week.
