The January transfer window has shut, but these 11 players are all still available to sign on free contracts.
Mangers up and down the country will have got the majority of their business done before the winter window closed on Tuesday night.
However, for those still searching for possible new recruits to make that crucial difference between now and the end of the season, there are a number of free agents waiting in the wings to be snapped up...
Chris Kirkland (age 35)
The former England, Liverpool and Wigan stopper joined Bury in the summer on a one-year deal, but left the club for personal reasons.
He insisted he had not retired from football completely and could return either as a player or coach, and has recently been on Sky Sports News HQ as a pundit.
Joey O'Brien (age 30)
The versatile Republic of Ireland full back is yet to find a club after being released in June by West Ham, where he made 105 appearances over five seasons.
He was blighted by injuries throughout his time at Upton Park, but at 30 years of age, if he can keep himself fit, O'Brien could still be a useful squad player across the Premier League and Sky Bet Championship.
Christopher Samba (age 32)
The giant defender joined Panathinaikos on a one-year deal last summer, only to leave the Greek club earlier this month after having his contract cancelled.
However, despite having recently had a trial at Crystal Palace, the Congo international is available to pick up for free for any clubs wishing to bolster their back lines.
Martin Caceres (age 29)
The experienced Uruguay international has played for some of Europe's biggest clubs in the past decade, including Villarreal, Barcelona, Sevilla and Juventus.
Having left the Serie A champions in June after four years in Turin, though, the central defender is still searching for a new club and so can be picked up for nothing.
Dwight Tiendalli (age 31)
Tiendalli, who had a loan spell at Middlesbrough in 2015, is a free agent after struggling __with injury for the past two seasons.
The right back flew out to Marbella for a trial __with Birmingham City in the summer, but wasn't signed up. He picked up two Dutch caps in 2013, but hasn't had a full season of football since 2011/12.
Michael Essien (age 34)
The Ghanaian midfielder is maintaining his fitness at Chelsea's Cobham training ground, but is still looking for a club after leaving Panathinaikos in September.
Essien, who Jose Mourinho once described as being able to play in "every position but goalkeeper and striker", spent nine years at the Blues, and Irish club Limerick rejected speculation that he was planning to buy the club earlier this month.
Nigel Reo-Coker (age 32)
The former West Ham and Aston Villa midfielder was most recently playing for Montreal Impact in MLS, but agreed to leave the club in January 2016 following a three-year stint in the US.
Reo-Coker was then linked with moves to both Celtic and Rangers in September, but is yet to find a club, and at 32, has plenty left in the tank.
Raul Meireles (age 33)
The heavily tattooed Portuguese midfielder was linked with a move to Bournemouth in the summer, but is still without a club, most recently being touted as a replacement for Joey Barton at Rangers.
It seems he is fighting fit, however, having played over 20 games each season for the past 11 campaigns and gained cult status at the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea and Fenerbahce.
Charles N'Zogbia (age 30)
The Frenchman saw out a bumper five-year contract at Villa until the summer, and was training with Sunderland after their Premier League survival.
But new manager David Moyes decided against giving him a contract, and N'Zogbia's desire to then play in Ligue 1 hit a snag as team doctors at Nantes noticed that the winger has a serious heart condition. He is yet to retire, however.
Frank Lampard (age 38)
The former Chelsea and England midfielder left New York City FC in November after two seasons with the MLS franchise, with many expecting the player to then hang up his boots.
But Lampard has been linked with moves to Swansea City, Palace and West Bromwich Albion in the January transfer window, while the player also recently turned down the chance to sign for Championship high-flyers Brighton and Hove Albion too, according to reports.
Carlton Cole (age 33)
Carlton Cole was back training with West Ham in November after leaving US third-tier side Sacramento Republic, and said he would be keeping fit with the team until January.
After that, the striker's future is anyone's guess, but at 33, the former England international has plenty still to give.
