Four-time champions, Kano Pillars, have placed five of their players in the transfer window of the off-season in the Nigeria Professional Football League.
According to the spokesman of the club, Idris Malikawa, the players failed to perform well at the just-ended season, while the others were released on “medical ground.”
“Kano Pillars has sent five of its players into the transfer market,” Malikawa stated.
“The players were declared surplus to requirement based on the recommendations of the technical crew. The affected players did not perform well last season while some were dropped on medical ground.”
But Kano Pillars did not reveal the names of the players as it has become a tradition by Nigerian clubs when players are released or transfer-listed.
However, supersport.com scooped that the players would have to look for new clubs who will now negotiate with Kano Pillars for their exit before they are handed their clearance papers.
The recommendation of the five players dropped by the club to the new technical adviser, Kadiri Ikhana was at the instance of members of the backroom staff who worked with the previous head coach, Mohammed Baba Ganaru.
Supersport.com further learned that two strikers, two defenders and a midfielder are the five listed for transfer by the club.
