West Ham United have seven players who have entered the final six months of their contracts at the London Stadium.
Highly-rated full-back Ben Johnson and experienced centre-back Angelo Ogbonna are two notable names who are now free to hold talks with foreign clubs over a pre-contract agreement, ahead of a potential free transfer when their deals expire on June 30.
Johnson, who has enjoyed a run of games in the first team this season, is believed to have a two-year contract extension clause in his current deal, which the Hammers are looking to activate.
Ogbonna, meanwhile, may have already played his final game for West Ham as he has been ruled out for the rest of the season with an ACL injury, with discussions over a new deal yet to have taken place.
Goalkeepers Lukasz Fabianski and David Martin, versatile full-back Ryan Fredericks and winger Andriy Yarmolenko will also see their contracts expire at the end of the season, and their long-term futures at the London Stadium remain uncertain.
Club legend Mark Noble is the final player who also has just six months remaining on his deal, however, the 34-year-old confirmed over the summer that the 2021-22 campaign will be his last as a West Ham player, ending his 17-year association with the club.
In addition, goalkeeper Alphonse Areola – who is currently on loan from Paris Saint-Germain – is set to see his temporary deal expire in June, though the Hammers do have the option to sign him permanently.
