WITH the Telekom S League transfer window opened this week, league top contenders Laugu FC have already released three of its key players, while signed in former KOSSA FC forward Ian Paia with options for defender for Michael Boso as replacements.

Laugu FC management revealed these in a statement to SunSPORTS on 26th October.

“We confirm three of our players have been released to other TSL Clubs,” the club statement confirmed.

The players are; Gagame Feni, Matson Feni and Jared Rongosulia.

The trios have been instrumental in the men in black’s campaign to reach their current standing on 23 points behind leaders, Henderson Eels, however the players decided to leave the club following the end of round one.

Despite these the Laugu FC club management is yet optimistic ahead of the final league round.

“The team we can manage these despite the players movement. We are taking in a forward and a defender for their replacement,” Laugu FC club confirmed.

“Paia already joined us in training over the weekend (Saturday). Now we are in talks with Boso to replace Matson in defense, and we will see how it goes since only two players are allowed for transfer.

“The players made their own decisions in regards, maybe attractive packages are the main factor,” the club statement reads.

Boso’s confirmation from Isabel FC is yet pending as talks will continue throughout the week.

The Feni brothers have been said to return to their homegrown club, Solomon Warriors along with Rongosulia signing their allegiance Friday last week.

“We decide to leave the club and return to our original team where we have made our names with,” Matson told SunSPORTS last night.
