It is nearly a month since the closure of the summer transfer window - but there are still plenty of players on the free agent market.
At the end of a season, clubs publish retained lists and the free agent market is flooded with players who have not penned new contracts.
Many are snapped up over the course of the summer and others secure moves post-window, as they can be signed at any time.
Here is a look at 37 players who have not yet secured new contracts having left clubs earlier in the year - with plenty of familiar faces featured.
