“We are earnestly looking to revamp the team, and have released some players based on the recommendations of the technical team. We have subsequently added new players whose names will soon be announced once negotiations have been finalised by their respective teams,” Celtic CEO Khumbulani Konco told the club’s website.
“The past season was not only tumultuous, but made us react promptly towards building a solid and competent squad for the 2017/18 season.
“It is the nature of the industry; unfortunately, some players will leave, paving the way for the new signings.
“We genuinely appreciate the contribution made by the players in helping the team to avoid the axe, and wish them all the best in their future endeavours. We value our supporters, and it is important that we strengthen the team through proper restructuring,” he concluded.

This after the 26-year-old midfielder said he would be interested in joining Amakhosi if they wanted to sign him.
