Clubs must submit list of released players by May 17 to EFL 18:41 - May 16 with 23320 viewsTK1

Interesting detail from the the Middlesborough official story about their retained list:

"Clubs must submit a list of all out-of-contract players whose services are not being retained by Saturday 17 May."

Therefore, the club will be fully aware of the fate of Jimmy Dunne, all the other out of contract and loan players. Tomorrow, the EFL will also know. I wonder when the club will feel able to communicate this to their primary stakeholders, the fans? As far as I can tell, every other club has made their choices public.

I suspect that the club has offered deals to, at least some of, those out of contract but an impasse has been reached, as the players want to know, who their head coach will be.

I'd imagine you're right but I think clubs can release a list with a few players that have 'In contract discussion' next to their name.

That seems logical but not in the Christian spirit.

I can't find a retained/released list on the EFL site but there is one on the Real EFL site here: https://therealefl.co.uk/2025/05/05/championship-retained-lists-2024-25/

I assume the Real EFL is bona fide but haven't come across it before.


The clocks ticking for our Director of Football to make a decision and release the list, what exactly is he afraid of, surely the players know by now whose staying, going or under discussion for contract negotiations.....

So basically us and Coventry left. The two teams in the playoff final shouldn't really count.

I don’t think he’s afraid of anything. It will be what it will be … players hold more cards these days it seems. Not fussed when the update comes out (EFL date or not, who cares, the EFL bends the ‘rules’ when it suits them anyway). Seems a bizarre date anyway when contracts often run to end-May (and most players are off to far flung beaches).

I’m more interested when we get our manager/coach in place right now. Click-bait that we are talking with Sage now. Seems Rohl has a huge compensation fee attached, so even Southampton are balking. And lots of click-bait Thorup is coming. So who knows!!

Yup get all that just concerned that a man with very little experience is making the decision without a manager being in place but I guess just goes to show how little influence the manager will have with squad building/recruitment.

Seen the click bait about Thorup, the man sacked by Norwich if I'm not mistaken....

We're still waiting to hear about 5 out of contract players: Jimmy Dunne, Jack Colback, Morgan Fox, Kenneth Paal and Lucas Andersen.

Then there's Koki Saito - will the club give him a contract?

And what about Taylor Richards and Hevertton Santos? Even Murphy Cooper has a small question mark as to his status.

Plus there are still 4 or 5 Dev squad players who could be shown the door.

That's a lot of players we don't know about. Nourry's playing staff communication is reprehensible.

Aren't most players contracted until the end of June?

Surely there's a difference between released players and players still negotiating/keeping their options open? I can just imagine the furore if the club says they're releasing, say Morgan Fox and Lucas Anderssen, but stay silent on Dunne and Colback because they just don't know. I agree that Nourry has been pathologically tight-lipped at times but there's also some situations where it would cause even more speculation to only give out half the information.

QPR will announce the list of players retained/released at 2.55 on the first Saturday of the season.
Sorry, 12.25 on the first Saturday of the season.

Yeah I know all about Andy Belk but he's not the Director of Football who is responsible for making all the final decisions on squad building, and doing that without a Manager in place doesn't help.

There’s three distinct types of not knowing something. There’s knowing you don’t know something. There’s not knowing you don’t know something. And there’s supporting QPR.

Other clubs have released their retained list with some players catagorised as "Ongoing Discussions Over A New Contract". If they can do it, why can't QPR?

I'd be more worried about the competitive advantage they have in having a manager, financial headroom, a decent squad, more modern ground, a third kit that doesn't look like dehydrated dog's piss, not employing Taylor Richards...

I like the idea that anyone ringing Dunne, Paal or Andersen’s agents would be told ‘sorry mate, can’t discuss it, QPR haven’t released their retained list yet’….
