Contract End Dates 14:22 - May 13 with 625 views

When do player contracts actually end? I believe it is 30-06-2021 but I may be wrong. In which case the players with expiring contracts will be paid up until then whatever happens. Does that effectively give the club all of June to offload any of the players whose options were taken up before it actually costs them anything? And then, if no fees are forthcoming before the end of June they could then be given free transfer/loan (assuming somebody wants them).

Seems a risk still but I guess they are confident they can make more than they would have missed out on by letting them go for nothing.

Probably also worth saying on those who had contract options taken but are now available...

Deals run to June 30 then, if players are released, #itfc would be required to pay them through July or until they get fixed up as severance. https://t.co/45RpFNtuZx

Great minds eh? I beat him by a minute though.

Edit: He seems to confirm in the comments that we can get rid of them by the end of July if we wanted to. Seems a bit strange, must be a break clause in the contracts. Perhaps those options we have taken up are less of a gamble than we thought.

Perhaps we are holding onto them in case other deals fall through?
