Striker Ryan Chapman will be breathing a sigh of relief this month after getting his clearance from Bidvest Wits, with the two parties agreeing a mutual termination.

The 29-year-old, who has had loan spells with both Golden Arrows and SuperSport United of late, has not played for the Clever Boys since August 2014, and it was very nearly another six months of being sat on the sidelines for him.

However, the Siya crew have been informed that "Chappies" has agreed to a mutual termination of his contract in the final week of August, and is now free to search for a new club.

It's been a difficult couple of years for the former Santos man after Wits exercised an option in his contract, despite deeming him surplus to requirements, although he will now be focused on getting his career back on track.

There had been talk that Chapman could team up with his former Wits coach Roger De Sa at Ajax Cape Town, but the Urban Warriors are apparently happy with their current strikeforce and will not be looking to bring him on board.

Meanwhile, Malawi international Robin Ngalande is on the hunt for a new club after leaving Wits, with his contract having expired at the end of June.
