He is at the end of his contract and if they were going to keep him, they probably would have extended him already, so yeah, no shock. There was also some chatter that being 67, he may just opt to retire. The fact they are making the decision now suggests to me that they may want to get in on Trotz or that maybe Bowness wants to keep working and they are releasing him early so that he can start looking.
He seems pretty young for 67 and I wouldn't be surprised to see him keep going.
