• Norwich City first-team squad contracts (* indicates known extension option)
Goalkeepers:
Angus Gunn – 2018 (loan), Paul Jones – 2018, Michael McGovern – 2019, Remi Matthews – 2019*, Aston Oxborough – 2020*
Defenders: Timm Klose – 2019, Ivo Pinto – 2019, Russell Martin – 2019*, James Husband – 2020, Sean Raggett – 2020*, Marcel Franke – 2020*, Grant Hanley – 2021, Christoph Zimmermann – 2021*, Jamal Lewis – 2021*
Midfielders: Harrison Reed – 2018 (loan), Moritz Leitner – 2018 (loan), Alex Tettey – 2018, Wes Hoolahan – 2018, Matt Jarvis – 2019, Todd Cantwell – 2019*, Yanic Wildschut – 2019*, Louis Thompson – 2019*, Mario Vrancic - 2020, Marco Stiepermann – 2020, Onel Hernandez – 2021*, Tom Trybull – 2021*, Josh Murphy – 2021, Ben Godfrey – 2021*, Kenny McLean – 2021, James Maddison – 2021*
Forwards: Steven Naismith – 2019, Nelson Oliveira – 2020, Marley Watkins – 2020*, Carlton Morris – 2020, Dennis Srbeny – 2021*

How might this look come the start of 2018-19 season? 1 point for each correct answer come window slam shut time. I won't include incomings for now unless everyone else is going to take a punt. (Leistner if we do)

My guess:

Goalkeepers:
Michael McGovern – 2019,
Remi Matthews – 2019*,
Aston Oxborough – 2020*
Defenders:
Timm Klose – 2019,
Ivo Pinto – 2019,
Russell Martin – 2019*, No buggers are going to be daft enough to loan him after Rangers!
James Husband – 2020,
Grant Hanley – 2021,
Christoph Zimmermann – 2021*,
Jamal Lewis – 2021*
Midfielders:
Moritz Leitner – 2018 (loan),
Matt Jarvis – 2019,
Louis Thompson – 2019*,
Mario Vrancic - 2020,
Marco Stiepermann – 2020,
Onel Hernandez – 2021*,
Tom Trybull – 2021*,
Josh Murphy – 2021,
Ben Godfrey – 2021*,
Kenny McLean – 2021,
Forwards:
Dennis Srbeny – 2021*
Out on loan:
Sean Raggett – 2020*,
Todd Cantwell – 2019*,
Steven Naismith – 2019,
The rest sold

Several of those I think/hope might stay and have guessed so above i think are at risk and would not be surprised to see them snapped up for performance or in Josh's case promise:
Grant Hanley
Jamal Lewis
Josh Murphy
others too for contract reasons like the too well paid but still decent enough to attract interest:
Timm Klose
Ivo Pinto


Bah!
 
Lot of work there, GM, so thanks for that. Maddison and Murphy are possible leavers, but we won't know until actual bids are made. I don't see Hanley or Lewis leaving, but Wes and Tettey are other possibles. I hope DF can convince Leitner to sign on and there's also Reed and Gunn. It'll be interesting to see how it all works out.
