FORMER Adelaide co-captain Sarah Allan has requested a trade to Gold Coast, AFL.com.au understands. 

As reported earlier in the week, the Suns have been courting the three-time premiership defender as she weighed up a move from the Crows.

Allan, who captained the Crows alongside Ebony Marinoff in 2024 and 2025, is close friends with Crow-turned-Sun Anne Hatchard, and also played several seasons alongside the Suns' women's footy boss Erin Phillips.

Allan has played 107 games and would bring experience to the young Suns' list.

While a reunion with former teammates is on the cards at the Suns, Allan would be leaving behind sister Jess who also plays at the Crows.
