In a month's time, players throughout the world of football will leave their clubs officially, with the June 30 contract expiry date leaving thousands of free agents behind.
Some will retire and the rest will look to find new clubs to play for in the 2023/24 season, with a free transfer an appealing option in an increasingly competitive market. Premier League clubs will be able to offer large sums of money in the upcoming window, but the chance to sign a bargain out of contract player will also be an attractive prospect.
There will be some big names available, with World Cup and Champions League winners all in the market for a new club ahead of what will be an exciting summer of transfer activity.
