Former St Johnstone defender Richard Foster admits he faces an uncertain future at Ross County.
The ex-Saints, Aberdeen and Rangers man’s deal with the Staggies – whom he joined last August after leaving McDiarmid Park – ends on May 31.
Foster, 34, is one of a number of Scottish Premiership players who could be left in contract limbo following the suspension of all football indefinitely because of the coronavirus outbreak.
He told the BBC: “I’m in a position that I’m sure many other footballers are in – out of contract at the end of May.
“If the season is to start again beyond that there is obviously a conversation to be had between me and the club.
“It is whether one, they want to sign me to a long contract, to take in next season.
“Or do they want to sign me for just a couple of months until this season finishes, if that is the way we go?
“Or whether it is, ‘Look, thanks for your services, we’re going to resume the season with the players we still have under contract’.
“I’m sure it’ll be different for every player and every club.”
County sit tenth – just outside the drop zone – in Scotland’s top flight, two points above second-bottom Hamilton and six points ahead of Hearts at the foot of the table.
But Foster, who says he’s been keeping fit in a gym at home, wants the season completed.
He said: “If it stopped now Celtic would be champions, Hearts would be relegated and Dundee United would come up.
“But I think it would affect teams like Hearts and Partick Thistle more than it would affect Celtic – you either get crowned champions or you don’t.
“It is not going to have an effect on players’ livelihoods and the club’s livelihood.
“The staff at Celtic are still going to get paid while certain clubs being relegated would bring with it different challenges.
“Just for clarity I think the season would need to be finished.
“I feel even Celtic fans would want to be champions having played all the games rather being handed the title now, even though it is relatively inevitable that they’re going to win the title.”
