The Reds have been in discussions with Australian midfielder Dougall and keeper Radlinger - who has made 18 appearances for this club this term - about agreeing to play out the remainder of the 2019-20 campaign, which ends on July 22.

But the out-of-contract pair have elected to depart after the conclusion of their contracts on June 30 when they become free agents.
