Preston North End are certainly not the only Championship club with a whole host of players in the final year of their contracts.
Up and down the division, several players see their deals expire in the summer of 2025 – as things stand. At Deepdale, lots of first team regulars are in that boat, including goalkeeper Freddie Woodman, defender Liam Lindsay and striker Emil Riis.
Manager Paul Heckingbottom is not overly fazed by the situation, mind. Having been appointed in mid-August, the 47-year-old wants to see how players go before making the necessary calls. One player who has indicatedhe would like to stay at Deepdale, is centre-back Jordan Storey.
Players can agree a pre-contract with overseas clubs once they enter the last six months of their contract, but for domestic clubs it is in the final month. With that in mind, how are the other 23 squads looking? Here is a full breakdown, courtesy of TransferMarkt…
