Turkish football club Medipol Basaksehir parted ways with four players, including former Real Madrid and Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor.
Narrowly missing the championship title of Turkey’s top-tier football league this season, Basaksehir left Turkish player Serdar Tasci, Russian defender Fedor Kudryashov and Bosnian Riad Bajic out of squad, as well as Adebayor.
“We thank Adebayor, who fights to the last drop of his blood on the pitch, for his contributions to our club and wish him success in his career,” Istanbul club Basaksehir said on Twitter Thursday.
Togolese international Adebayor played 76 matches and scored 28 goals in his two-and-a-half-year career in Basaksehir.
A 35-year-old footballer is now without a team.
Separately, Tasci, 31, left the club after playing only five matches last season.
Kudryashov scored just one goal for Basaksehir in his eight appearances.
He is also without club after his departure.
Bajic, 25, was transferred from Basaksehir to Atiker Konyaspor, another Turkish league club.
The striker scored 12 goals in 37 matches in his one-and-half-year career with Basaksehir.
