Midfield duo Bradley Johnson and Neil Kilkenny are both out of contract in June. Both players are over the age of 23 and as such are eligible to leave on a free transfer this summer if they so wish.

The club has had discussions with both players and their representatives during the season but were unable to agree terms that were acceptable to both parties.

The club will remain in dialogue with the representatives of the players to establish if the situation has changed now we have reached the end of the season and the club's league status is known.

Manager Simon Grayson expressed a desire that the players decide if their future is at Leeds United as quickly as possible as he continues to assess the make-up of next season's squad.

Grayson said: ''I want things concluding quickly so we can plan ahead and move forward with certainty.''
