Bolton Wanderers boss Owen Coyle admits Andy O'Brien could leave this summer.
Coyle insisted that he would not force any of his players out of the door this summer, but accepted that O'Brien could decide to move on.
"Andy is a terrific professional and someone I have got a lot of time for," he said. "As a footballer I think you tend to take stock at the end of every season, and it is certainly something I did as a player.
"All I wanted to do was play football and dropped salary four or five times to go and play rather than be sat on the bench somewhere.
"I'd totally understand if Andy or any of the boys in that bracket felt like that."
