As the January transfer window approaches, a staggering 82 Premier League players will be free to negotiate with foreign clubs starting Wednesday, January 1. Topping the list is Liverpool’s iconic forward Mohamed Salah, who, alongside teammates Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, enters the final six months of his contract.Under the Bosman rule, players whose contracts expire on June 30, 2025, can sign pre-contract agreements with clubs outside of England from January. This gives these stars the chance to secure their futures long before the summer transfer window opens.
Liverpool Stars Headline the List
At Anfield, speculation continues to grow over the futures of Salah, Van Dijk, and Alexander-Arnold as their contracts near expiration. With Liverpool heavily reliant on this trio, their potential departure could signal a significant shift for Jurgen Klopp’s squad.

Manchester United: Six Contracts Set to Expire
Over at Old Trafford, Manchester United is also grappling with expiring contracts. The list includes breakout star Amad Diallo, club captain Harry Maguire, midfield maestro Christian Eriksen, as well as Victor Lindelof, Jonny Evans, and veteran goalkeeper Tom Heaton. Decisions on these players will be pivotal for Erik ten Hag’s squad planning.
Arsenal and Tottenham Weigh Their Options
In London, Arsenal is assessing the futures of midfield stalwarts Thomas Partey and Jorginho, both of whom have been integral to Mikel Arteta’s project. Meanwhile, at Tottenham, star captain Son Heung-min could leave on a free transfer if Spurs fail to act during the January window.
What’s Next?
With the January transfer window opening, Premier League clubs face critical decisions to either negotiate extensions, offload key players for a fee, or risk losing them for free in the summer. Fans across England and beyond are watching closely as these stars consider their next moves.
