The Premier League season is now approaching its final stages, which means club chiefs up and down the top tier will be finalising their recruitment plans for the summer.
Just like every summer, there are a whole host of players who will run of contract at their current clubs, opening the door to potential free transfers. Here we take a look at some of the possible free transfers Crystal Palace, Fulham and Tottenham could consider this summer.
Ola Aina
Aina is out of contract this summer, and he will be one of the most attractive options available given he has made 30 league appearances for Forest this season, helping them get to the verge of securing Champions League qualification.
Given his involvement, it seems likely Forest will pursue a new deal, but clubs will be keeping an eye as the summer approaches.
Kyle Walker-Peters
Walker-Peters is not likely to sign a new deal at Southampton whether he is offered one or not. The full-back is a Premier League player, and while he stayed with Southampton following their relegation last time around, he is not likely to make the same sacrifice this summer.
The 27-year-old has a wealth of Premier League experience and will be seen as a very good option by the majority of Premier League teams outside of the biggest few.
Thomas Partey
Partey has been a utility man again for Arsenal this season, playing at the back and in midfield. The Ghana international got a one-year extension last summer, but he could be set to depart this summer, with no news of another contract offer.
At 31 years of age, Partey could go to the US or elsewhere to get a pay day, but he is still very competent at Premier League level, and he is worth enquiring about.
Tariq Lamptey
Lamptey is out of contract this summer, and there hasn’t been talk of a new deal since around December time. The 24-year-old has struggled with injury this season, making only 13 Premier League appearances.
Given his injury troubles, Lamptey might be seen as a risk, albeit a low one should he become available for free. Though, he is a talent and he has shown what he is capable of in flashes at Premier League level.
Callum Wilson
This one comes with the caveat that Newcastle have the option to extend Wilson’s deal by another year, but with Alexander Isak the clear starter and Eddie Howe potentially bringing in another striker, Wilson could still wind up leaving. There will be competition for his signature within the Premier League if he does.
Victor Lindelof
Lindelof had his United deal extended by a year last summer, but he is on course to leave this summer, with no contract offer in sight. The 30-year-old has had to settle for just eight Premier League appearances this season, but he is still a competent defender.
A move abroad seems more likely for Lindelof, but he should have some Premier League options if he becomes available on a free transfer.
Nelson Semedo
Semedo said this week: “It’s really good to have the confidence from the coach. I already spoke to him about my situation, and we’ll see what the future holds. I’ve been talking with the club.” The 31-year-old has made 30 appearances across all competitions this season, and he has top-level experience having played for Wolves, Barcelona and Benfica.
Jorginho
Arsenal midfielder Jorginho looks set to become available, unlikely to get another deal this summer. He is now 33 years of age, and there has been plenty of talks of a move to Brazil, along with murmurings of him preferring a Europe stay. There could be an opportunity to land the experienced holding midfielder on a free deal.
