After a tough season that ended in relegation to League Two, Rotherham United are making big changes this summer—releasing 11 players as they prepare for life in the fourth tier.

The Millers finished 23rd in League One, a full 11 points from safety after managing just 10 wins all season. It’s been a challenging campaign, but the club is already looking ahead to a fresh start.

Among those leaving the Aesseal New York Stadium are Cameron Dawson, Sean Raggett, Liam Kelly, Jordan Hugill, Duncan Watmore, Joshua Kayode, Ciaran McGuckin, Zak Jules, Reece James, Josh Benson, and Ben Hatton. Additionally, five loan players are returning to their parent clubs.

However, there’s some good news for fans: club captain Joe Rafferty has triggered an appearance-based option to extend his current deal, providing a key leader for the rebuild.

The Millers are also in talks with Jack Holmes, Joe Powell, and Josh Ayres about their futures, though no decisions have been made yet on Dru Yearwood or Shaun McWilliams.

As it stands, the club has 14 players under contract, but the biggest question remains: who will be in charge next season? Lee Clark’s short-term spell ended on the final day, and no permanent manager has been named yet.

For fans, this summer is all about rebuilding and regrouping—and that starts with the right players and the right gear. Whether you’re supporting from the stands or the pitch, make sure you’re ready for the new season in style.
