Laryea Kingston abrogates contract in Israel

Published on: 26 November 2011

Ghana midfielder Laryea Kingston has terminated his contract with Israeli club Hapoel Be'er Sheva after just three months at the club, MTNFootball.com can exclusively reveal. 

The 31-year-old ends his stay with the struggling top-flight club just three months into his two-year contract.

Kingston agreed amicable sum as compensation for the 21 months remaining on his contract.

“We agreed to release Laryea Kingston after both sides agreed on a compensation package for the player,” an insider at Hapoel Be'er Sheva told MTNFootball.com.

“He leaves the club with our blessing and no disagreement at all.”

Kingston was tipped to take the Israeli League by storm when he scored his first goal for Be'er Sheva in their 3-0 win over Beitar Jerusalem in the Toto Cup in August.

But Be'er Sheva coach Guy Levy failed to give the midfielder some playing time which might have prompted the decision for both parties to agree on the decision to part ways.

He has been linked with a return to his former side in the Ghana Premier League Hearts of Oak.

This is the second time the former Heart of Midlothian ace has abrogated his contract with a side in Europe in less than a year.

He opted to abrogate his contract with Dutch side Vitesse Arnhem in December 2010 after six months at the club due to the lack of playing time.
