Several players who saw limited action this season remain under contract, such as Cian Harries, Yahya Bamba, Max Robson, alongside academy products Jesse Aldridge, Akai Bonnick, and Will Merrett.
Meanwhile, club captain Jordan Moore-Taylor and first-choice goalkeeper Harry Isted are both in ongoing contract negotiations with the club.
Additionally, several loan players, including Jay Mingi, Chibby Nwoko, Ashqar Ahmed, Abraham Kanu, Elijah Morrison, and Jili Buyabu, have returned to their parent clubs.
With these changes, Forest Green Rovers currently hold a squad of 24 players, with the potential to add Moore-Taylor and Isted pending the outcome of their discussions.
