Essendon Coach to Discuss Future with Midfielder Elijah Tsatas

Essendon coach Mark McVeigh is set to meet with midfielder Elijah Tsatas, who is currently out of contract, to discuss his future with the club.

Tsatas, selected with Pick 5 in the 2022 draft, has struggled to secure a consistent position in the AFL, having played only 22 matches over four seasons despite strong performances in the VFL.

McVeigh, who has recently taken on the role of senior coach, emphasized the importance of understanding Tsatas's perspective before making any decisions. He aims to learn about the challenges Tsatas has faced and what support he needs moving forward. Additionally, Tsatas has been linked to North Melbourne, and other clubs may also be interested in his midfield capabilities.
