The club’s reigning player of the year has been a rock in the Roar’s defence alongside skipper and fellow import Tom Aldred since joining Brisbane in 2019 from English fourth-tier outfit Carlisle United.
But while Aldred signed a three-year contract extension in February, Gillesphey is set to move on at the end of the season due to his disappointment with the Roar’s attempts to keep him.
At least two rival A-League clubs have tabled better offers for Gillesphey’s services, as have teams in England, Scotland and Germany.
