MELBOURNE Victory star Gui Finkler headlines a star bunch of players coming off contract at the end of the season.

More than 100 players were on an official list of uncontracted players that was released to clubs last month, with Western Sydney, Melbourne City, Sydney FC and Perth Glory topping the list with 14 players apiece.

The Wanderers officially have the most now after former Central Coast keeper Liam Reddy was signed in recent days for the next six months.

The Wanderers’ high number is due to coach Tony Popovic’s latest overhaul, akin to signing most of his inaugural squad to short-term deals, and it wouldn’t be surprising if a chunk of his squad were poached yet again in this salary cap environment (Youssouf Hersi and Aaron Mooy were among those who moved direct to rival clubs).

And underlining that Football Federation Australia is giving no assurances beyond 2016 to Wellington Phoenix, their entire 24-man roster was named on the uncontracted list.

However coach Ernie Merrick has stitched up most of the squad for next season, and these players have not been included in the top 10.

Sydney FC left-back Alex Gersbach, 18, and Brisbane Roar attacker Brandon Borrello, 20, have shown flashes of their enormous potential this season, ensuring their signatures are the most sought-after of the young crop.

Fellow Australian youth internationals James Donachie (Brisbane), Connor Chapman (Melbourne City) and Chris Naumoff (Sydney FC) will also attract strong interest.

While visa spots are restricted to five per squad, it won’t stop clubs from poaching internationals from rival clubs.

Finkler’s class makes him a target for several of Victory’s rivals and making him more appealing is the fact that he becomes an Australian citizen in 2017.

Dutchman Romeo Castelen headlines an impressive batch of foreigners off contract at the Wanderers, including the rapidly improving Spanish trio Dimas, Andreu and Alberto.

Recent Socceroos call up Josh Risdon (Perth Glory), Olyroo Stefan Mauk (Melbourne City) and David Carney (Jets) are looking to pursue careers abroad.

Star Phoenix attackers Roy Krishna and Michael McGlinchey are yet to be re-signed beyond 2016.

With a dearth of keepers available, the likes of Mark Birighitti (Newcastle Jets) and Vedran Janjetovic (Sydney FC) have strong currency.

Veterans Alex Brosque (Sydney FC) and Michael Thwaite (Perth Glory) will attract interest.
