The Western Bulldogs have confirmed interest in securing Port Adelaide star Chad Wingard. 

Speaking to AFL.com.au at the NAB AFL Draft Combine on Thursday, Dogs’ General Manager of List and Recruiting Sam Power said Wingard is a player they'd like to complement their young list.

"There's no doubt we've got interest in Chad," Power said.

"There is a lot to play out and a lot of movement through the Trade Period, but we're always looking to improve our list.

"Chad hasn't (told he wants to come to the club), but we've obviously signalled to his management he's a player of interest to us.”

The Bulldogs have also confirmed they are keen to retain the services of midfielder Tom Liberatore.

The 25-year-old is recovering from a knee reconstruction, and talks with his management will ramp up over the coming weeks.

"All the talk has been really positive with 'Libba' and his manager Tom Williams, so we've had some good discussions over the course of the season," Power said.

"Tom's been overseas and only just recently returned, so we'll work through that over the short-term, but we're really confident Tom will be at the Bulldogs next year."

Power also confirmed Richmond forward Sam Lloyd had indicated to the Dogs that he wants to call the Kennel home next season.

"Sam, through his management, says he wants to come to the Bulldogs, which is fantastic," Power said.

"Now it's up to us and Richmond to work through what a trade will look like.

"We definitely like to think (the trade will happen) because we think Sam is a player that would add to our list and we'd love him on our list for 2019."
