What next for Jordan James? The midfielder was the brightest spark in an awful year for Leicester City, where he cleaned up at the end-of-season awards.
Still only 21, James is due to return to French club Rennes following his year-long loan spell with the Foxes – but there are suggestions that another move to English football is likely.
James’ contribution at Leicester suggests he would be an asset for any Championship club – while he may have earned a shot at the Premier League.
Ethan Ampadu is already shining at the highest level having enjoyed a fine season with Leeds, where he is under contract until the summer of 2027.
It has been reported that while the club have an option to extend the deal by 12 months, they are keen to tie Ampadu to a new longer-term deal to ward off any potential suitors.
There are other less prominent Wales players whose futures will also be on the agenda this summer, with Swansea City boss Vitor Matos revealing he will have a conversation with Ollie Cooper.
Kai Andrews, meanwhile, may not be expecting much of an opportunity at Coventry City next season following their promotion to the top division.
The teenager has spent the second half of 2025-26 on loan with Hibernian, but has struggled for regular game-time with the Scottish Premiership club.
Fellow youngster Charlie Crew, of Leeds, is another player who could be looking for another move after his season-long loan spell at Doncaster Rovers was cut short.
