Out-of-contract, June 2020:

CB – James Chester

RB/RW – Ahmed Elmohamady

CDM/LM – Birkir Bjarnason

CM – Conor Hourihane

CM – Aaron Tshibola

CAM – Jack Grealish

CAM – Ross McCormack

RW – Albert Adomah

CF – Keinan Davis

CF – Jonathan Kodjia

Whole lot of guys on this list. Obviously, a small handful could receive extensions, while a small handful could depart the club. Chester, Hourihane, and Grealish are all in line for new deals should the club achieve promotion, but maybe aside from Super Jack, it is not an urgent matter.

Bjarnason’s future is up in the air, as is Ross McCormack’s. Albert Adomah will play next season at age-30/31. Keinan Davis is set after signing a new deal at 19, while Jonathan Kodjia will have to prove his fitness and lethality in the Premier League for an updated deal.
