Which Premier League players are out of contract this summer

Which Premier League players are out of contract this summer?

When Harry Maguire signed a new Manchester United contract this month, the experienced England defender removed himself from the list of this summer's potential free agents.

Some big Premier League names have already announced their intention to leave when their deals expire - including Manchester City captain Bernardo Silva, Liverpool's Andy Robertson, Newcastle United's Kieran Trippier and Maguire's team-mate Casemiro.

But the future of many senior players remains uncertain, with fewer than five weeks of the league season remaining.

From returning loanees to stand-out performers who are likely to be in demand elsewhere, BBC Sport takes stock of more than 60 players who could be on the move come June.

There isn't too much of note for Mikel Arteta to worry about.

Estonia goalkeeper Karl Hein, 24, who made his sole senior appearance for the Gunners in a League Cup fixture in 2022, is the only player out of contract. Hein has been on loan at Werder Bremen this season, following similar spells at Reading and Real Valladolid.

Unai Emery has no immediate contract worries, with all of his first-team squad contracted until at least 2027. There was a suggestion Ross Barkley, 32, was out of contract this summer but it is understood the former England midfielder signed a three-year deal when he joined from Luton Town in July 2024.

Head coach Andoni Iraola is one man who will definitely be leaving Vitality Stadium in a few weeks. And his replacement, Marco Rose, will be desperate for defender Marcos Senesi to stay in Dorset.

The impressive Argentine, 28, has started every league game this season bar one - for which he was suspended - but has already rejected three new offers from the Cherries, amid reported interest from Juventus and a host of Premier League clubs.

Third-choice keeper Fraser Forster, 38, has not featured for Bournemouth since signing a six-month deal in January.

Brentford boss Keith Andrews can avoid having to replace a considerable amount of Premier League experience this summer by triggering a trio of extensions.

Jamaica left-back Rico Henry, 28, has turned in some sparkling displays in the Bees' push for Europe and the club have an option to extend his stay for an additional year, as they do with midfielders Mathias Jensen, 30, and Josh Dasilva, 27, who was given a short-term deal in October as he recovers from three injury-ravaged seasons.

Brighton stand to lose a huge amount of top-flight know-how this summer.

James Milner, 40, now the leading appearance maker in Premier League history, is undecided about his future but remains influential.

Defenders Adam Webster, 31, and Joel Veltman, 34, could also become free agents. Webster, sidelined with a serious ACL injury since July 2025, has spoken publicly about wanting to stay.

Winger Solly March, 31, another long-serving player beset by serious knee injuries, has struggled for game time in the past three campaigns.

Lewis Dunk's contract was due to be up this summer, but BBC Sport understands the 34-year-old has triggered a one-year extension.

Burnley's relegation to the Championship will be confirmed if they lose to Manchester City on Wednesday.

Goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, 37, has played every minute of this league campaign and the Slovakian's experience could prove invaluable in the second tier.

World Cup-bound DR Congo defender Axel Tuanzebe, 28, and veteran striker Ashley Barnes, 36, a bit-part player in his second spell at the club, could also become free agents in June, along with third-choice keeper Vaclav Hladky, 35.

The Clarets have an option to extend the contract of versatile midfielder Josh Laurent, 30, for another year.

Given the BlueCo ownership's policy of tying down players on extremely long contracts, it's perhaps no surprise that no senior Chelsea players find themselves as free agents this summer.

Head coach Oliver Glasner has confirmed he will depart this summer, so Palace's hierarchy will have to decide on the futures of three of their 2024-25 FA Cup winners.

Japan's Daichi Kamada, 29, and Colombia's Jefferson Lerma, 31, have played regularly in midfield this season but both face becoming unattached midway through the World Cup, although the Eagles have a one-year option on Lerma.

Ex-England defender Nathaniel Clyne, 35, in his second spell at Selhurst Park, has been used sparingly this term.

David Moyes has the option to extend Idrissa Gueye's contract by 12 months and given the 36-year-old Senegal midfielder's recent performances, it would seem a prudent move.

Ukraine's Vitalii Mykolenko, 26, is another understood to have an option for a one-year extension, while his defensive colleague Michael Keane, 33, has been in fine form as he fights for his future.

Club captain Seamus Coleman, 37, has played just 11 Premier League minutes in what is the Irishman's 17th first-team season. Tyler Onyango, 23, picked up a hamstring injury in his second loan spell at Stockport County and seems likely to become a free agent.

Harry Wilson, 29, may have missed out on a third major tournament with Wales, but the attacking midfielder has been one of the league's most eye-catching players this season.

The Cottagers' top scorer nearly joined Leeds United on deadline day last summer, but - with 10 goals and six assists this campaign - clubs nearer the top of the division may come calling.

Manager Marco Silva, himself out of contract, has the option of a one-year extension for left-back Ryan Sessegnon, 25, while forward Raul Jimenez, 34, has scored nine goals before a World Cup campaign with co-hosts Mexico.

Fulham also retain one-year options on midfielder Luke Harris, 21, currently on loan at Wycombe Wanderers, and goalkeeper Steven Benda, 27, on loan at Feyenoord.

Back-to-back wins mean it looks increasingly likely Leeds will avoid the drop, so boss Daniel Farke will have to tie up a few loose ends with his goalkeepers.

Karl Darlow, 35, is currently the Whites' starting keeper, but the Welshman's deal is up in June, as are those of back-ups Illan Meslier, 26, and Alex Cairns, 33.

Right-back Sam Byram, 32, has made just one brief league appearance this term and seems likely to leave Elland Road for a second time.

France centre-back Ibrahima Konate, who won the title with the Reds last season, is one of the most prized players on this list. After Sunday's Merseyside derby, the 26-year-old told the BBC an agreement on a new deal was "close".

Andy Robertson, 32, has won two league titles and the Champions League since joining in 2017, but will leave this summer. BBC Sport understands Tottenham are in advanced talks with the Scotland left-back, who they tried to sign in January.

Contracts are also up for defender Rhys Williams, 25, and third-choice keeper Freddie Woodman, 29, who made his first Premier League appearance for the club as a substitute in the 2-1 win over Everton.

Club legend and captain Bernardo Silva, 31, will bring the curtain down on a glorious career at Etihad Stadium this summer having won 18 trophies - so far - in nine seasons. The Portugal playmaker remains a class act and will not be short of offers.

Another mainstay of City's recent success, England centre-back John Stones, could also be leaving. A thigh problem kept the former Everton man, 31, out of action for nine weeks and Pep Guardiola's options in defence mean he has started just one league game since August.

Having found form and netted four goals since announcing in January he would leave this summer, there were some calls for United to reconsider the future of Brazil midfielder Casemiro, 34, but that ship has sailed.

Netherlands left-back Tyrell Malacia and England winger Jadon Sancho, both 26, look set to depart Old Trafford. The Red Devils are unlikely to exercise a one-year option on Sancho, who has spent this season on loan at Aston Villa.

Veteran third-choice keeper Tom Heaton, 40, and midfielder Dan Gore, 21, a regular starter in his second loan spell at relegated League One side Rotherham United, are also out of contract.

League Cup-winning stalwart Kieran Trippier, 35, has confirmed he will leave St James' Park after a four-year spell.

Fabian Schar, 34, another starter in last season's cup final win, is also out of contract, as are Sweden defender Emil Krafth, 31, currently out injured, and Matt Targett, 30, chasing promotion with loan club Middlesbrough.

Back-up keepers Mark Gillespie, 34, and John Ruddy, 39, could also leave.

Burkina Faso winger Bertrand Traore, 30, and left-back Dennis Cirkin, 24, could depart. The club have a one-year option on Traore, as they do with local boy Harrison Jones, 21, although the latter is likely to leave.

Another academy graduate, Dan Neil, 24, has already confirmed he will exit the club upon returning from his loan spell with Championship promotion-chasers Ipswich Town.

Deals are also up for rarely-used goalkeeper Simon Moore, 35, and right-back Niall Huggins, 25, on loan at Wycombe Wanderers.

Mali captain Yves Bissouma, 29, played a key role in Tottenham's Europa League triumph last season, but has had a stop-start campaign and was widely expected to leave in January before picking up an injury.

The club's longest-serving player, Wales left-back Ben Davies, 32, sustained a broken ankle in January and it remains to be seen if he will extend his stay.

Relegation could also leave many Spurs stars open to offers, even if their contracts have plenty of time to run.

Winger Adama Traore, 30, has been used exclusively as a second-half substitute since joining on a short-term deal from Fulham in January, but the club do have an option to extend.

The Hammers were poised to terminate the contract of ex-England striker Callum Wilson, 34, before he scored a late winner against Tottenham in January. His future now is unclear.

Former Poland goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, 41, has missed most of the season with a back injury and is yet to hold talks about an extension.

Wolves will be preparing for life in the Championship this summer and their only order of business is the future of experienced right-back Matt Doherty, 34. The Republic of Ireland mainstay has made 330 league appearances across two spells at Molineux but just 10 of them have come this season.

There is plenty of talent in Europe and beyond for English clubs to cast their eye over.

Robert Lewandowski may be 37 but the evergreen Poland striker is still a class act and Barcelona are yet to confirm if he will stay beyond the summer. Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic, 26, currently out with a calf problem, has 90 Serie A goals to his name and the Serb's contract talks seem to have stalled.

Germany winger Julian Brandt, 29, is leaving Borussia Dortmund having made more than 300 appearances, while his compatriot Leon Goretzka, 31, is ending his stay at Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich.

Spain right-back Oscar Mingueza, 26, is yet to sign new terms at Celta Vigo, Morocco left-back Souffian El Karouani, 25, has an impressive 16 assists for Utrecht this season, while former Chelsea centre-back Malang Saar, 27, is out of contract at Ligue 1 title challengers Lens this season, although the French club have a one-year option.

Other former Premier League stars who may find themselves looking for a new club include Saar's Lens team-mate Allan Saint-Maximin, 29, Al-Ittihad's Brazil midfielder Fabinho, 32, and Real Madrid centre-back Antonio Rudiger, 33, although reports in Spain indicate the German will sign a one-year extension.
