We have several first team squad players whose contracts will end this summer and I'd doubt that Marti would want to keep many of them. That being the case we can expect lots of new faces this summer.
Asmir Begovic Jordan Archer Joe Walsh Ossie Kakay Aaron Drewe Jimmy Dunne (the club has the option of a further 12 months that I'd expect it to enforce) Andre Dozzell Elijah Dixon Bonner Stephen Duke McKenna Albert Adomah Chris Willock Sinclair Armstrong (the club has the option of a further 12 months that I'd expect it to enforce) Isaac Hayden (loan deal expires) Joe Hodge (loan deal expires)
Charlie Kelman' s contract was due to expire in the summer but I believe it was extended before he went on loan to Wigan. Not sure of the length as the club are no longer providing too many details.
I'd imagine the club will be looking at new contracts for Dunne and Armstrong plus there may also be deals for Walsh and EDB but of the rest of them I think that the club will let them go.
In addition its highly likely that the club will see interest Jake Clarke Salter and Illias Chair which could deplete the first team even further should they get sold.

I would agree on all of this stoatey, the keep list needs to be small.
I'd add Willock to the list but I think that ship has sailed.

I'd imagine when the transfer window opens that a goalkeeper and a goal scorer will be high on Marti's list but he will also need a new captain.
In respect of Chris Willock, do we know whether the club offered him a new contract?
Interesting the choices everyone is going for, and most make sense. We should bear in mind that if Hodge & Hayden depart (as expected) we may need EDB, and could we rely upon Colback being both fit and not suspended for all the season? Retaining Walsh, Dunne and Armstrong make sense; but I am not convinced we should push too hard to keep Chris Willock (who for whatever reason has lost his mojo, despite having a more considered role with a better manager).
Just a visual reminder of whose contract is up unless an extension clause is triggered or the player chooses to sign a new contract [just click on image to expand]:
