Here is a list of players who will be available free next summer. There is potential to agree deals in January and potentially buy the player on the cheap. Source: transfermarkt http://www.sixcrazyminutes.com/index.php?threads/bosman-transfers-2015.54393/ Player (age) Club Sami Khedira (27) Real Madrid Marcelo (26) Real Madrid Andriy Yarmolenko (24) Dynamo Kyiv Giorgio Chiellini (30) Juventus Evgen Konoplyanka (24) Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk Yann M'Villa (24) Inter Milan James Milner (28) Manchester City Andre Ayew (24) Marseille Klass-Jan Huntelaar (31) Schalke 04 Tom Cleverley (25) Manchester United Glen Johnson (30) Liverpool Nigel De Jong (29) AC Milan Balazs Dzsudzsak (27) Dinamo Moscow (end-December 2015) Emmanuel Adebayor (30) Tottenham Hotspur Matthieu Flamini (30) Arsenal Christoph Kramer (23) Bayern Leverkusen (on loan at Monchengladbach) Sergi Roberto (22) Barcelona Jon Flanagan (21) Liverpool Younes Kaboul (28) Tottenham Hotspur Ron Vlaar (29) Aston Villa Steven Gerrard (34) Liverpool John Terry (33) Chelsea Michael Carrick (33) Manchester United Mikel Arteta (32) Arsenal Suso (20) Liverpool Rafael van der Vaart (31) Hamburg Anderson (26) Manchester United Gabriel Agbonlahor (27) Aston Villa Dirk Kuyt (34) Fenerbahce Danny Ings (22) Burnley So, who would be a useful yet cheap addition?
Khedira, Vlaar we could maybe get in January unless we can attract a world class centre back. Agbonlahor or Adebayor will end up at Liverpool lol
Khedira is the obvious one, but Arsenal seems the most likely No point in any of the dippers, we have enough programme sellers
Khedira, Vlaar (if we don`t splash out for a CH) and Marcelo. The rest are has beens or never have beens
Gerrard and Terry. Not to ever actually play them, just to watch the Liverpool and Chelsea fans explode when their once beloved heroes turn up in at Utd shirt. If we could harness the energy from the plastic shirt burning which resulted then we could solve the world's energy crisis
Thought Cleverly got a new contract earlier this year? I'd be surprised if a number of those players don't renew contracts beforehand. Khedira, Vlaar, Marcelo, Yarmolenko, Chiellini, Konoplyanka, M'Villa, Milner, De Jong, Flamini, Flanagan, Gerrard, Terry, Carrick, Agbonlahor, Ings will probably all have new contract extensions. The ones over 30 probably 1 year extensions.
They have just a few months to get those contracts renewed though. Come jan, any club can make an offer. I suspect most will be wanting to see who comes in. Vlaar and chiellini cheap ot free would be decent.
If we sign an agreement with Vlaar in January then that would be great business. But if he renews his contract and we then go for him, it would just be a repeat of some of our stupid antics in transfer windows in the past.
Thought this was the last season of Anderson, Cleverley and Young, swear Young is out of contract this summer.
