Gor Mahia chairman Ambrose Rachier has finally confirmed the club is in the process of releasing Hashim Sempala.
The Ugandan international's future at Gor Mahia was entirely thrown into doubt after the club signed David Mapigano, Dickson Ambundo, Gislain Yikpe Gnamien, and Francis Afriyie to take the number of foreign players over the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) quota.
A club is only permitted to have five foreign players at any given time.
"We have released players, some on mutual consent and we are also in the process of releasing [Hashim] Sempala," Rachier told reporters when new head coach Steven Polack and the new players were unveiled on Thursday.
