Ekstien has been stuck in a contractual battle with the Soweto giants in the past few months but on Friday the club confirmed that they have reached a mutual agreement with the players to terminate the contract.

The 28 year old midfielder has been rumoured to be leaving the Amakhosi after being unable to agree to a contract extension at Naturena.

Venezuelan striker Paez  has also left the club after a new deal was not offered to him after struggling for game time in recent times since the arrival of coach Ernst Midderndorp in December.
