Current deal, say, that's floating around (9)
I believe the answer is:
driftwood
'that's floating around' is the definition.
'current deal say' is the wordplay.
'current' becomes 'drift' (can be similar in meaning in navigation contexts).
'deal say' becomes 'wood' (deal is a type of wood).
'drift'+'wood'='DRIFTWOOD'
(Other definitions for driftwood that I've seen before include "box, perhaps left by water" , "found washed up on a beach?" , "remains ashore" , "What beachcomber found" , "Timber washed ashore" .)
