Continuing on from my posts last week, I'm really in the mood to look at more players that will be out of contract next season. The reason behind this is that I just find it fascinating that clubs haven't offered certain players contracts when you thought they would have done by now.

The Liverpool Echo is reporting that Barcelona are planning a move for Kop keeper Pepe Reina.
When Pep Guardiola took the reigns as Barcelona manager in June 2008 few would have predicted what was about to happen over the following four seasons.
