The former Warri Wolves goaltender joined the Amakhosi in 2019 after an amazing outing with Chippa United and was responsible for the club qualifying for the CAF Champions League final in their first attempt.

Akpeyi lost his position in the team due to injury and frequent managerial changes due to the club's poor performance.

The management announced a new manager that will take charge of the team and also continue to reorganise the team ahead of the new season.

Through their news outlets, they announced the release of some players on Wednesday afternoon and Akpeyi's name was mentioned.

"Goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi will also leave the Club, with his contract set to expire on 30 June 2022. The Nigerian international signed mid-season from Chippa United in 2018/19 and featured 69 times in 3.5 years for Amakhosi

Farewell, and good luck," the club said.
