CLUBS are sure to be lining up for an incredible XI of stars whose contracts are expiring next summer. 2024 is drawing to a close and with the New Year comes the January transfer window. Teams from across the globe are able to buy and sell as they please.

But it also marks the start of another crunch period. With just six months remaining on their contracts, stars whose deals expire in the summer can truly begin assessing their options. In the Premier League, footballers can begin talking to foreign sides over pre-contract agreements.

While those in other countries are welcome to hold talks with any club, both at home or overseas. There are some amazing names set to be up for grabs in 2025. And an XI featuring the best players looks good enough to win the Champions League. In goal, Bayern Munich star Manuel Neuer is the pick of the bunch.

FOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS. Despite turning 39 in March, the stopper remains one of the best in his position. Yet Bayern could yet attempt to sway Neuer into staying for a 15th season. At right-back, Trent Alexander-Arnold is up for grabs after spending his entire career at Liverpool.

Aged just 26, his best years are still ahead. And Real Madrid are reportedly favourites to snap him up for nothing. Alexander-Arnold isn’t the only Liverpool star out of contract. Defensive teammate Virgil van Dijk is another Anfield ace whose deal is nearing its end.
