With their 2012/13 PSL campaign at an end, Maritzburg United have started their preparations for next season by releasing four of their current squad members.

The club’s official website confirmed that Byrone Hendricks and Wayne Matle will not have their contracts renewed following their expiration, while Francis Chansa has had his deal terminated by mutual consent. 

Meanwhile, their on loan midfielder, Mthokozisi Yende, will return to Kaizer Chiefs now that his loan spell has been completed, with Maritzburg having revealed that they will not be looking to bring him back to the club. 

However, Yende’s contract with Chiefs expires in June and it is highly unlikely that they will renew his deal, leaving him to look for a new club ahead of the 2013/2014 season. 

The Team of Choice wished the quartet well, saying in a statement on their website, “The Club would like to thank these players for their contribution and wish them well in their future endeavours.”
