Algerian club Entente Sportive Sétifienne (ES Setif) have reached an agreement with Ghanaian duo strikers Samad Oppong and Alex Asamoah to amicably terminate their contracts with team despite the fact that they still have three years left in their deal with the North African side.

The Algerian top flight side management will pay each player 12,000 euros as compensation.

The duo Ghanaian strikers failed to meet the appreciation of the Algerian side tactician since they joined the team last August.

The scouts of the ES Setif have been asked to replace the now released strikers with three players; a Malian, a Burkinabe and a Benini.

ES Setif are in the driving seat of the Algerian League table with 27 points.
