Bristol City are preparing for the start of the new Championship season right now.
The Robins kick-start the 2022/23 campaign away at Hull City on 30th July.
Nigel Pearson’s side finished 17th last term and will be aiming for much better next time around. They are in action tomorrow in a pre-season friendly clash against League One side Portsmouth, followed by a trip to Plymouth Argyle on Saturday.
They have delved into the transfer market to bring in Kal Naismith from Luton Town, Kane Wilson from Forest Green Rovers, Mark Sykes from Oxford United and Stefan Bajic from Pau.
The club have the opportunity to bring in more players in time for their first game against the Tigers and the free agent market is one that is available to them and every other league rival.
Here is a look at midfielders who are currently available for nothing and haven’t been snapped up yet...
