Bristol City are still to confirm their retained list following the conclusion of the 2021/22 season for the club, but will be casting an interested eye around the rest of the league as the options that could be available.
The free agents market will be fiercely competitive as Championship teams strive for value in the market amid declining transfer resources and with a need to cut wage bills.
So far, six clubs have confirmed their retained lists and the identity of those who will be free agents on June 30, with Blackburn Rovers, Cardiff City and Stoke City naming some, but not all, of the players who will be leaving.
