Phil Parkinson has made no secret of his desire to see the player move on and, while currently injured, the winger is set to train with the under-23 side when he's back in action.
But what comes next? An exit, a move overseas or something else? We take a look at nine of the options that could be open to McGeady:
5. League One
While the salary cap may make it hard for any League One club to bring in McGeady on a permanent basis, a loan move may be possible - if it was to the benefit of both player and parent club. Photo: Catherine Ivill
6. The Championship
As the window enters its final weeks, could clubs looking for a wide player take a punt on McGeady? Some may be taking an admiring glance before October 16. Photo: Lewis Storey
7. A left-field overseas move
We've seen players head off to all sorts of exotic destinations in recent years, and clubs from any corner of the globe could come calling for McGeady - particularly if they're looking for a well-known and experienced signing. Photo: FRANK REID
8. An agreement over his contract
If McGeady cannot find a club before the window closes, it is not beyond the realms of possibility that an agreement could be reached over the remainder of his contract. Photo: FRANK REID 2019
