One player that certainly won't be involved is winger Gavin Whyte, who's completed a season-long loan move to Oxford United.
And McCarthy admits the move was mainly due to his inability to guarantee the Northern Irishman meaningful game time this season.
MICK McCARTHY:
"If I've got Josh Murphy, Ryan Giles, Kieffer Moore, James Collins, Rubin Colwill, Isaak Davies, Tommo (Tomlin), Mark Harris all in those forward places, he's not going to play.”
“We have a big squad and have strength in depth, so I could not guarantee him a game.”
"So for his good he needs to go out and play and if he can go and have another good season, then maybe he can come back here and play."
