The 3 Charlton Athletic players we can see leaving in January | OneFootball

FLW takes a look at three players who could potentially leave Charlton Athletic during the January transfer window.

Charlton Athletic lost a few of their key players from last season, and there may be more departures during the January transfer window, especially if a new contract cannot be agreed for one of their most promising youngsters.

Charlton Athletic's three most influential players last season were arguably Golden Boot winning striker Alfie May, captain George Dobson, and rapid winger Corey Blackett-Taylor.

Now, less than a year since all three were playing for the Addicks, May is scoring goals for fun in League One with Birmingham City, Dobson is impressing for Wrexham as they make their mark in the third tier, and Blackett-Taylor has scored his first goal in the Championship for Derby County.

Meanwhile, Charlton have been in a difficult run of form which has seen them drop into the bottom half of the League One table, following an excellent start to the season that had seen them among the promotion contenders.

Manager Nathan Jones is likely to want to strengthen his squad during the next transfer window, and that could mean that a couple of players are allowed to depart, although there may also be interest in someone that the Addicks would much rather keep hold of.

Let's take a look at three players who could leave SE7 in January as things stand.

3 Terry Taylor

Midfielder Terry Taylor signed for Charlton from Burton Albion last summer, before an injury limited him to just five league appearances during his debut season.

The 23-year-old was linked with a move away during the summer transfer window, with fellow League One sides Rotherham United and Barnsley reportedly interested in taking the former Wales youth international on loan, as per Football Insider.

Despite Taylor returning to fitness, it seems as though he is surplus to requirements under Jones, a suggestion which is backed up by the fact that he has yet to make an appearance in the league so far this term.

Therefore, it would be no surprise to see him leave the club during the January transfer window.

2 Tayo Edun

Tayo Edun featured 26 times for Charlton in the third tier last season, although he is another player who has yet to make a league appearance so far during this campaign.

The left-back did score during the Addicks' EFL Trophy victory over Cambridge United last month, but that was seemingly not enough to force himself back into Jones' immediate plans.

With Josh Edwards and Thierry Small ahead of Edun in the pecking order at left wing-back, there is every chance that the 26-year-old will depart during the January transfer window.

1 Miles Leaburn

Charlton supporters will not want to think about the possibility of Miles Leaburn leaving so soon after he has returned to first team action, especially amid the Addicks' lack of threat in the final third, but there is a chance that the striker will move on at the start of next year.

The 20-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season, which is likely to alert a number of clubs, as there has previously been interest from the likes of Chelsea and Brentford in his services.

Charlton will hope that they can convince Leaburn to continue his development at a club where he will be a key player, although if he does not sign a new contract, they may well decide to cash in on the forward in January to avoid losing him when his contract comes to an end in 2025.
