The EFL campaign kicks off next weekend while the Premier League season will begin a week later, when Crystal Palace welcome Arsenal to Selhurst Park on Friday, August 5.
At the beginning of the month, there were 31 players released by top-flight clubs on the free agent list, but 10 of those stars have now found new sides ahead of the season.
Jesse Lingard became the latest unattached player to resolve their future as he signed for Premier League newcomers Nottingham Forest.
Paul Pogba was the highest profile free agent at the end of the season after leaving Manchester United and he has returned to Juventus for the 2022-23 campaign.
Another in-demand free agent was Christian Eriksen, who has now signed a three-year deal at Old Trafford after an impressive six-month spell with Brentford.
As it stands, a total of 21 players released by Premier League sides have yet to confirm what their plans are for the future.
