Fozcast - The Ben Foster Podcast

What happens when the contract ends… and the next club doesn’t come?

Jonny Williams has played 400 career games, featured at a Euros semi-final and a World Cup. Will Keane has played across the Championship and League One after coming through at Manchester United. Jamal Blackman has spent years in the professional game as a goalkeeper. And right now, all three are without a club.

We joined them at the PFA’s pre-season camp to talk honestly about life as a free agent — waiting for calls, being overlooked for younger players, training without a contract and dealing with the uncertainty of what comes next.

Three experienced pros, three very different situations, and a side of professional football fans rarely get to see.

Ben, Tom and Watto go through the lot — defending the players when there’s more to it, calling them out when there isn’t, and agreeing with the fans more often than you might expect.

Ben and the lads also break down the tiny Cole Palmer detail that leaves goalkeepers stranded, why the Alisson challenge WAS a penalty, and whether João Pedro was right to give it back to the Brighton fans.

Plus, can anyone really blame Ollie Watkins for wanting out?
