Hide AdCarlton Morris, Louis Thompson and Andrew Fisher all 'returned' to their parent clubs when the season was curtailed on Tuesday but all three may have futures at Stadium MK according to the manager.
With Dons more likely to dip into the loan market next season as the coronavirus strangles money from football clubs in the EFL, Martin thanked Morris, Thompson and Fisher and said he needs to see the lay of the land before he can make concrete predictions on whether any of the three could return to the club next season.
He said: "Carlton and Louis were great for us off the pitch as well as on it. You could see straight away what Carlton brought, he was a real focal point. Both were great for me in the dressing room, really great characters and it gave us such a great feeling to have players like that in there.

"Fish was great for us, even though he didn't get a game. He gelled really well with the goalkeepers, as back-up to Lee and I think had Lee been injured, we'd have been in really safe hands with him in there. He has expressed an interest in coming back, but we will have to see how everything else works out in the meantime before we can really make a decision on that."
