Posted : 16 June 2026

Nigeria Premier Football League heavyweights Kano Pillars have officially announced the departure of eight first-team players. This decision follows the conclusion of the 2025/2026 football season. The club confirmed that the contracts of these individuals had officially run out.

The list of departing players contains several prominent names from the senior squad: Muhammad Galadima, Ugochukwu Gabriel, and Zahraddeen Bello are among those moving on. They are joined by teammates Williams Ayuba, Bernard Ovoke, Christian Izuchukwu, Sudais Ali Baba, and Aliyu Yakubu.

Management released an official statement to address the squad changes. They expressed deep gratitude to the departing athletes for their service. The four-time league champions praised their hard work, professionalism, and dedication during their time wearing the famous club colors.

The hierarchy emphasized that these individuals made valuable contributions to the side known as Sai Masu Gida: "Kano Pillars FC sincerely appreciates the commitment, professionalism, and contributions of the players during their time with the club," the statement noted.

The team also sent goodwill messages to the players for their future careers. The management, coaching staff, and loyal supporters all united to wish the departing group success in their next professional steps. They concluded by stating the players would always remain part of the extended club family.
