Cheltenham Town is in the midst of planning for the upcoming season, with a focus on retaining key players and restructuring the team. The club aims to secure the contracts of Tom Bradbury and Liam Kinsella, both of whom have been vital to the team’s performance during the 2024/25 League Two campaign.
Bradbury, a left-footed defender, has been a stalwart player for Cheltenham since joining from Halifax Town in 2022. Similarly, midfielder Kinsella, who arrived from Swindon Town in 2024, has proven to be a consistent performer for the team. Additionally, young talent Freddy Willcox is set to receive a new contract after showcasing promising development.
While efforts are being made to retain certain players, there are also expected departures, including goalkeeping duo Owen Evans and Max Harris, midfielder Tom Pett, and youngster Brandon Liggett. Manager Michael Flynn has hinted at the possibility of further changes, indicating that some contracted players might be moved on.

At the same time, there are plans to offer professional contracts to young talents Mamadou Diallo, Cameron Walters, and Harry Tustin.
The team is also evaluating the possibility of securing Player of the Year Sam Stubbs on a permanent basis, although there is interest in the center-half from other clubs. Furthermore, wingers Jordan Thomas and Ethon Archer are expected to attract offers during the summer transfer window.
