Cape Town - Kaizer Chiefs have confirmed they have parted ways with Kgotso Malope, Gustavo Paez and Hendrick Ekstein with immediate effect.
Malope and Paez have been surplus to requirements in 2018/19 in terms of first-team football and the Glamour Boys have since dispensed with their services.
Ekstein's future, in particular, had been the subject of intense speculation with coach Ernst Middendorp saying he was an integral part of his plans.
Veteran forward and Chiefs captain Bernard Parker reportedly encouraged the 28-year-old to extend his deal at Naturena.
However, the player and the club could not agree to terms on a financial package and he will now have the opportunity to pursue his career elsewhere.
Meanwhile, Paez and Malope saw virtually no first-team football this season and it appears to come as little surprise they will both be moving on.
Amakhosi's official Twitter account said: "The club and midfielder Kgotso Malope have parted ways. Malope was promoted from Chiefs Development in July 2013 and has since been sent on loan to various Clubs including Moroka Swallows.
"The club and striker Gustavo Paez have parted ways. Paez joined Kaizer Chiefs in January 2017 and will not have his contract renewed.
"Kaizer Chiefs would like to confirm the termination of contract on mutual consent of midfielder Hendrick Ekstein. The midfielder was promoted from Chiefs Development in October 2013
"We wish him all the best in his future endeavours."
