Meanwhile, Venezuelan midfielder Edson Castillo could also be heading out the exit door. The 31-year-old's Chiefs career started well, but his form has dropped off dramatically.
'It's been said that head coach Nasreddine Nabi could be open to his [Castillo's] potential exit, allowing the club to be more flexible in the market as they look to lure new foreign recruits to bolster the squad for the upcoming season,' the report read on iDiskiTimes.
