SCOTT Pendlebury's management is understood to have taken enquiries from multiple clubs about 2027, with Gold Coast among those with genuine interest.

A call on the champion Magpie's plans for next year won't be made until the end of their finals campaign. 

"Scott will not be making a decision on his future until season's end. His eyes are firmly fixed on Collingwood's finals series,” Pendlebury's agent Anthony Panozzo from Hemisphere Management Group told AFL.com.au.

Pendlebury is due to play game No.442 for the Pies in Friday night's clash with Brisbane, but there is uncertainty about his future in 2027.

The Suns' interest is real as they look at options to add leadership to their group, with Pendlebury an unrestricted free agent at the end of the year. 

AFL.com.au revealed earlier this month Essendon had enquired with interest in Pendlebury as it targets experience for its young group, however the two-time premiership Pie will not head to the Bombers.

Essendon was keen to add a coaching layer to his future as well post his playing career, with Pendlebury having shown aspirations for a coaching career down the track. 

Collingwood has been in discussions with Pendlebury about 2027 but there has not been an offer for a contract.
