Hesitant Maidstone players are running out of time to decide if they want to stay with the National League new-boys.
The futures of play-off final scorers Bobby-Joe Taylor and Dumebi Dumaka, along with Manny Parry and Charles Banya, remain in the air.
Stones boss Jay Saunders wants answers by Friday.
He said: “They’ve got until Friday to decide and if nothing’s agreed, we move on to other people.
“Money’s the main thing, to be honest. We’ll probably find a couple more will leave this week.
“I’ve spoken to all of them about different things and we’re a little way apart on where we need to be. We’ll see but I don’t expect them all to stay."
Callum Driver and James Rogers, meanwhile, have agreed new contracts while Joe Healy is set to join Stones at pre-season training before going travelling.
Saunders said: “Joe had a couple of offers but didn’t want to sign for anyone else. He felt he shouldn’t come to pre-season if it was going to unsettle things, but I’ve told him not to worry about that.”
