The trade period for players not eligible for Free Agency, including Tippett, starts on Monday, October 8 and runs until October 26.
The Club is obviously disappointed with Tippett's decision and will now try to engineer a positive outcome for the Crows.
Adelaide head of List Management and Recruiting David Noble said: “I can assure members and supporters that the Club (including players and coaches) could not have done any more to try to convince Kurt to stay with our Club.
“In addition, we believe that our Club has provided Kurt with an outstanding learning environment after drafting him as an extremely inexperienced 18-year old in 2006.
“On top of this we have always put Kurt’s best interests at the forefront as well as remunerating him at the top end of our player payments scale.
“The Club has now reassessed the current list and will continue its strategy to make sure the team’s needs are met so the improved performances of 2012 continue.”
Tippett, 25, played 104 AFL games for Adelaide and kicked 188 goals, including 39 this season.
Drafted from Queensland with pick 32 at the 2006 national draft, he made his AFL debut in the opening round of the 2008 season.
