28 on that list. And the 25 man squad is an issue - it has to be named at some point, so must always be born in mind.

Yeah 28 on that list but then you also have Van Hecke, Roberts, Molumby, Baluta, Khadra and Locadia who are probably not content with playing U23 football next season.

Its messy to add more players in a situation like that.

Maybe you didn't see, or bother to read, where I said,"Still a few loans to be sorted - and room for one or two departures" then - which was precisely referring to the likes of Van Hecke, Roberts, Molumby, Baluta, Khadra,, Richards, Tau, Connolly, Walton, Alzate, Karbownik and Locadia (not all of them, obviously - it's for the recruitment/loan teams and GP to decide exactly which ones).

Solly needs updating in your footer as well

Good chance Ostigard and Cochrane will have signed extensions too, or had 1 year extension options activated. I'm almost 100% ccertain that neither Stoke or Hearts will be getting either of them for free next summer!

Not sure where we land but likely outgoing - is loan deals now for Khedra, Karbownik, and Van Hecke. Mutual contract termination or exit for Locadia, and sale/loan for Molumby, Walton and Baluta. .
And likely incoming - still where we were months ago a LWB and a striker. Plus - as is always the case with Albion a leftfield couple (eg: a Moder or a Mooy) or a youngster bought in and loaned out. Or maybe...nothing !

With the U21's we have 33 names on that list which I imagine is still larger than Potter would want. Some names that will be surplus to requirements/just part of the squad and available if a suitable offer comes in.

Agree with all that -- and you're right to flag up the leftfield possibility. It's almost as though you've got a hotline to PB :wink:
To your list, I'd add as a possibility the loan of at least one from Caicedo, Roberts and Richards.
There are 34 on your list, 25 with 9u-21s. We loan or sell the seven you indicate, and we've still got 27 which feels pretty big to me. Those three mentioned would benefit from playing Championship football rather than playing Cup football (for how long?) and the occasional inclusion in the first 18 for PL matches -- this, of course, assumes that GP doesn't have them in line to feature in the PL more regularly.

It's worth adding that it's been such an impressive window in clearing the decks of those players that weren't going to feature in the PL, with some impressive Championship loans too.

PS - Not my list - just an occasional editor - it’s the very fine and useful work of @-Blue-Valkyrie

It’s been a really, really good summer for that but looking at the latest list it’s still an enormous squad!
If some of the youngsters are as close to the first team squad as we think there’s still gonna be a few exits of slightly senior (22+) players you’d imagine.

Still a few possible sales, loans or cancelled contracts to sort in the next 4 days.

3. Walton - Sale?
U21. Karbownik - Olympiacos loan?
U21. van Hecke - Blackburn loan?
U21. Roberts - Championship loan?
11. Băluţa - Does he actually exist?
U21. Caicedo - Development loan?
U21. Khadra - Blackburn loan?
22. Zeqiri - Reading loan?
23. Locadia - Ibiza club?

23 Locadia?? seriously cant we even give him away? What gives -is he injured / sent to Coventry ? any ideas

He’s got a squad number 27 he’s been showing it off on his Tiktok account

No idea what this means exactly, but if others like AC/Zeqiri go on loan, on available numbers alone, could he end up in the 25?
