Kings Lynn announce retained list

National League North side King’s Lynn Town have released their retained list for the 2020/21 season.

A statement on the football club website said: “The football club has today lodged a retained list of players for the 2020/21 season with the Football Association.

“The list is as follows: Ross Barrows, Alex Brown, Michael Clunan, Chris Henderson, Sam Kelly, Rory McAuley, Dayle Southwell, Tom Ward, Luke Johnson, Sonny Carey, Ryan Hawkins, Aaron Jones, Jordan Richards and Chris Smith.

“Players released: Nathan Fox and Ryan Fryatt.”

Missing from the tally of names are goalkeeper Alex Street and striker Michael Gash, who have already agreed deals for next season, while other notable absentees are frontman Adam Marriott and midfielder Ryan Jarvis.

Marriott plundered 30 goals for the Linnets last season as the club finished the season second in the National League North standings but has yet to agree new terms with the club.

It is believed that both Marriott and the club remain in discussions about a possible new deal.

Kings Lynn were top of the National League North Division when the season was brought to an abrupt end.
