A football retained list is the roster each club publishes at season's end showing which out-of-contract players it keeps and which it releases. Retained List tracks those 2026-27 retain-and-release decisions for every Premier League club — alongside estimated weekly wages, contract expiry dates, ages, positions and squad makeup for 1,035 players across 35 clubs, extending to the EFL Championship, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and the Saudi Pro League.

Every figure is compiled from public reports, club disclosures and league filings, then checked against its source before publishing — each page shows the date it was last verified. Pick a club below to see its full squad, or jump to our highest-paid, contracts expiring and free-agent rankings.
