Forest Green Rovers

Forest Green Rovers captain Kyle McAllister says he is out of contract at the end of the season for the first time in his four years at the club.

The 27-year-old joined Forest Green in 2022 and has played 184 league games, taking the captain's armband this campaign after previously sharing the duties.

Yet McAllister said he is unsure where his future lies with his current deal expiring next summer.

"I'm out of contract this year, so [I] just want a good year try and do the best for the team, try and get promoted and then at the end of the season we'll see what happens," McAllister told BBC Radio Gloucestershire.

So far this season, the midfielder has scored three goals in seven league games, providing a further three assists.

Manager Robbie Savage called him "the best player in the league" following their win 4-0 win against Gateshead on Saturday.

McAllister said: "It's the first time I've been out of contract since I've been here - it's an exciting time, I guess, come to the end of the season and being out of contract, but you never know what could happen. I'll be ready for anything."

"He came in on Tuesday morning because we were in for a debrief, warm-down and recovery and Josh, who has been a shining light for us this season, said 'I've got out the shower, slipped, knee swollen up' and he's got a partial rupture of his ACL," Savage told BBC Radio Gloucestershire.

"Not good news - he's going to be out for eight to 12 weeks."
