League of Ireland side axe new player after FOUR days as ‘values & principles didn’t match club’s standards’

KERRY FC have axed Shane Maroodza just FOUR days after signing him.

The First Division club announced his arrival on Friday and he played for 60 minutes in their 3-0 defeat to UCD that night.

But that turned out to be the Zimbabwe international’s last game for the club as well as his first, having previously been with Huddersfield Town and Bradford Park Avenue.

Kerry revealed that both he and keeper Mathyas Randriamamy – capped once by Madagascar – had been released.

The former PSG trainee was brought in before the start of the season and had made just one substitute appearance before starting the last two games.

But in a social media post the club said the pair’s exit was because “Unfortunately, their values and principles didn’t match the standards of the club” without providing any more information.
