Adelaide star Mitch McGovern is understood to want to break his contract with the Crows – again.

Fairfax Media can reveal the 23-year-old sought to move clubs last October despite agreeing to a three-year contract extension in late August, because he felt the Crows had short-changed him in the deal.

McGovern, who hails from Western Australia, is understood to have chosen Victoria as his preferred destination.

It’s believed McGovern agreed to the Adelaide deal because the club said it had no more room in its salary cap.
