We’re expecting a lot of incomings this summer but, at the same time, there’s also surely going to be a lot of players leaving the club during the window.
We’ve been linked with a lot of top names but with Marcelo Bielsa notorious for wielding the axe and a number of our players not good enough, we might just see an exodus first of all.
With that in mind, then, Phil Hay’s latest update supports that after he spoke with a fan on Twitter recently.
Indeed, he’s said that it’s likely a number of players are going to leave this summer:
Antonsson to Brescia very possible. They want Denton but he's more likely to seek something in England. Interest in Cibicki. Anita, Lonergan among the others who are likely to leave.

The Verdict
Looking at these names I’m not too fussed about any of them moving away from the club.
None have really proven good enough in recent months and Bielsa isn’t going to mess around trying to get them up to scratch.
We can get better players and these exits should pave the way for that to happen.
