Michael Owen And Other Potential Free Transfers This Summer

Eighteen Premier League clubs could be in line to lose some of their stars this summer should they not tie them down to new contracts over the next few weeks. Michael Owen, Michael Ballack, Tomas Rosicky and Ryan Giggs are amongst the more notable players whose contracts expire in six months' time...


Portsmouth stand to be amongst the biggest losers of 2009. After already selling key players such as Lassana Diarra and Jermain Defoe during the winter window, they could possibly lose TEN players on free transfers in the summer, including rock-solid centre half Sol Campbell.

Manchester City could lose six players, the most notable of whom is highly-rated young striker Daniel Sturridge, who will no doubt have an endless list of admirers.

Elsewhere, Chelsea's midfield could be considerably depleted with the potential departures of John Obi Mikel, Michael Ballack (who could be set to sign a performance-based pay-as-you-play deal), Carlo Cudicini and Mineiro.

Arsenal are dangerously close to losing perma-crocked Czech Republic international Tomas Rosicky, and boo-boy Emmanuel Eboue.

Bolton Wanderers and Tottenham Hotspur are the only two clubs who stand to lose zero prominent first-teamers or squad players.

Below is a list of players whose contracts expire this summer. Which players does your club stand to lose should they not tie them down to new contracts over the coming weeks?

ARSENAL: Tomas Rosicky, Amaury Bischoff.

ASTON VILLA: Stuart Taylor.

BLACKBURN: Tugay, Andre Ooijer.

BOLTON: None.

CHELSEA: Michael Ballack, John Obi Mikel, Carlo Cudicini, Mineiro.

EVERTON: Andy van der Meyde, Nuno Valente.

FULHAM: Danny Murphy.

HULL: Ian Ashbee, Nick Barmby, Dean Windass, Sam Ricketts.

LIVERPOOL: Sami Hyypia.

MAN CITY: Michael Ball, Glauber Berti, Dietmar Hamann, Danny Mills, Daniel Sturridge, Darius Vassell.

MAN UTD: Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville.

MIDDLESBROUGH: Ross Turnbull, Brad Jones.

NEWCASTLE: Michael Owen, Steve Harper, Nicky Butt,
Mark Viduka.

PORTSMOUTH: Sol Campbell, Sean Davis, Kanu, Lauren, Noe Pamarot, Herman Hreidarsson, Richard Hughes, Djimi Traore, Richard Duffy, Linvoy Primus.

STOKE: Amdy Faye, Vincent Pericard, Salif Diao.

SUNDERLAND: Dwight Yorke.

TOTTENHAM: None.

WEST BROM: Dean Kiely.

WEST HAM: Lucas Neill.

WIGAN: Emile Heskey, Kevin Kilbane, Ryan Taylor, Henri Camara.

N.B: The future of Emmanuel Eboue is a contentious subject. While some reports indicate that the Ivorian international did indeed sign a long-term deal in 2007, Arsenal are yet to specify how long the versatile player committed for. His name has popped up on various Bosman lists this year, and could be available next summer, or even this summer!

I know that goal.com articles aren't allowed but I found this interesting.

PS: They forgot to mention Pennant from Liverpool on that list.

I posted something like that already.

Anyway,yeah,this last part is true...few times they said Eboue will be a free agent this summer and it wasn't Goal.com
