All 51 Premier League players out of contract today ahead of free transfer moves
Kevin De Bruyne, Thomas Partey, Christian Eriksen, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Michail Antonio are just some of the players whose contracts officially run out on June 30
A total of 51 Premier League stars have just hours left on their existing contracts before becoming free agents or sealing free transfer moves. June 30 marks the cut-off point for players whose deals had been due to expire at the end of the 2024-25 season, with the vast majority of their futures already confirmed by club announcements.
Retained and released lists have been published, goodbyes have been said and lockers have been cleared out. Some players will already have their next move lined up while others enter the free agent market.
Once the clock ticks past midnight and Tuesday begins, those out-of-contract stars be able to join a new club for free thanks to the Bosman rule. There's been some last-minute movement, though, as Friday saw Manchester United announce that goalkeeper Tom Heaton had signed a contract extension while it was confirmed that Everton captain Seamus Coleman had also signed a new deal.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Kevin De Bruyne were the most high-profile names coming to the end of their contracts this year. Real Madrid ended up paying Liverpool £10m to sign Alexander-Arnold early in time for the Club World Cup, a competition which Manchester City legend De Bruyne chose not to play in before he agreed to sign for Napoli.
A couple of players have also chosen to hang up their boots once their contracts expire. United defender Jonny Evans has announced his retirement, as has Adam Lallana of Southampton, who we've included on this list, despite their relegation to the Championship alongside Ipswich and Leicester.
But who else is on the move? Mirror Football runs through every Premier League player whose contract expires TODAY.

Fifa urged to extend half-time and double drinks break at 2026 World Cup
Fifa is being urged to bring in a longer half-time interval and two drinks breaks instead of one before next year's World Cup due to concerns around extreme heat. The international players' union Fifpro says the conditions at the Club World Cup in the United States are almost certain to be replicated at next year's men's World Cup in the US, Mexico and Canada — and will potentially be even worse at the 2030 tournament in Spain, Portugal and Morocco. Fifpro wants Fifa to double the number of drinks breaks and to make half-time breaks 20 minutes instead of the maximum 15 — that would need the agreement of the International FA Board, which makes decisions on the laws of the game. The union says nine of the 16 host cities of next year's World Cup have 'very high' or 'extremely high' risk of heat-stress injury during the tournament. It also wants Fifa to postpone afternoon kick-offs to the evenings if the temperature is too high and says such a step should have been taken when Bayern Munich played Benfica last week in Charlotte, North Carolina. FifPro's chief medical officer, Professor Vincent Gouttebarge, said players needed 20 minutes at half-time in extreme heat to be able to rehydrate. 'Only giving players 15 minutes is not enough at these temperatures — you cannot ingest enough in such a short time,' he said. 'If we anticipate the biggest tournament on earth next year and in Mexico as well there are some venues where games played during the afternoon are likely to be very extreme for health and performance of the players. 'We are anticipating that there are going to be more problems for the coming years in the 2030 World Cup in Spain and Portugal, perhaps even worse.' Alexander Bielefeld, Fifpro's director of global policy, said Fifa should avoid scheduling afternoon kick-offs in high-risk cities. 'What we have seen in the Club World Cup has to be a wake-up call for Fifa,' he said. 'It's clear that certain areas in the USA, especially in Florida, where there is a higher risk and a need to avoid midday kick-offs — so games scheduled in these cities should be moved to a later time. The health and safety of players must take priority over commercial interests, including the broadcasters.'

FIFA blasted over early kick-offs as Chelsea match 'should have been called off'
Two matches at the Club World Cup - the games between Paris Saint-Germain and Atletico Madrid and Chelsea and Esperance Club Tunis - took place at swltering temperatures Players have contacted their unions to raise concerns over the heat in the Club World Cup. Global players' union FIFPro also say two of the games in the tournament - including Chelsea 's game with Esperance Club Tunis - should have been called off as the temperature was over 30 degrees and was too hot. They have also called on FIFA to scrap 12 noon kick offs ahead of next year's international World Cup in the United States. Alex Phillips, of FIFPro, said: 'We have players who have been in touch with their unions on these issues. But it's a matter for the unions to disclose that. 'We will plead to FIFA. We will use common sense arguments. We can use the MLS protocols – they don't play matches at midday in Florida, for example, and haven't done for a number of years. So those kind of arguments are strong and we will try and use them as best we can.' FIFPRO Medical Director Prof. Dr. Vincent Gouttebarge added: 'In our position, obviously we have a threshold where the game should be postponed and re-scheduled. "The answer is quite straightforward, of course. The threshold? It is a WBGT of 28 degrees. 'According to our position, these games ( PSG v Atleti / Chelsea v Esperance) should have been postponed to a better place in the day and, if not available, then rescheduled.' Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca had called the heat "almost impossible" as his Blues side tried early in the day to prepare for the match against Esperance in Philadelphia last Tuesday. 'It's almost impossible to train, or to make a session because of the weather now,' Maresca said in his pre-match press conference. 'We are trying just to save energy for the game. This morning's session was very very very short, and it has just been about tomorrow's game plan and that's it, no more than that. "Because as you can see it's not easy with these conditions, with this temperature, but we are going to try to do our best. 'I always try to avoid excuses, but I try to be honest: it's not about excuses, it's about reality. It is an excuse when it is not hot and we say that it is hot. That is an excuse. "But if it's hot, it's hot. And it is difficult to work with this temperature. But we are here, we are trying to do our best and we are going to try to win again. This is the only thing that we can say and we can do.'

Bayern Munich join race for Liverpool star as Reds face big transfer decision
The battle to sign Luis Diaz this summer has seen a new challenger enter the fray, with Bayern Munich interested in the Liverpool winger. The future of the 28-year-old has been a topic of discussion this summer after Barcelona made an approach earlier this month. Liverpool rejected that move, but that has not snuffed out transfer talk, with Saudi side Al Nassr also interested in the Colombian. Sky in Germany now report that Bayern are also fans of Diaz and have begun to explore whether a deal can be done. The Reds rejecting Barcelona's approach for Diaz suggests they are not interested in selling him this summer, but it has not been entirely ruled out. Wake up to find news on your club in your inbox every morning with Metro's Football Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your team in the link we'll send you so we can get football news tailored to you. The left-winger has two years left on his contract at Liverpool and, given his age, the Reds will never get as much for him as they could do this summer. The former Porto star played a big part in Liverpool's dominant Premier League title win last season, playing 36 league games, scoring 13 goals and providing five assists. It would be a big decision to sell Diaz after the contribution he made over the last campaign, but Arne Slot does also have Cody Gakpo to play on the left wing. Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher says he was leaning towards wanting to see Diaz sold during this transfer window, but has changed his mind. 'If I'm being honest, for the majority of this season up until Christmas, I was thinking you sell Diaz in the summer,' Carragher told Sky. 'The way he's played and the way Liverpool's front line might change and with the fact that he can play through the middle in the manager's eyes, he's now going to stay and I think it might be other players who move on in the front line rather than Diaz.' Diaz spoke about the transfer speculation surrounding him earlier this month, saying he is more than happy at Liverpool, but admitted there has been contact with other clubs. 'I'm very happy there at Liverpool, I've always said so. They've welcomed me very well,' Diaz said when asked about links with Barcelona. 'We're in contact with them [Liverpool] right now because we're obviously talking to clubs. It's normal. More Trending 'The transfer market is opening, and we're trying to arrange what's best for us.' Apps: 82 (21) Goals: 29 Assists: 15 When asked about renewing his contract with Liverpool, Diaz replied: 'As I told you, I'm waiting for it to happen. 'If Liverpool gives us a good renewal or I get the two years I need with them, I'll be happy and content. 'It all depends on them, I'm just here to decide and look at what's best for us.'
