A massive clear out is expected at champions FC Platinum who could offload more than five players to accommodate new arrivals ahead of the 2018 Champions League.

Former Soccer Star of the Year finalist Brian Muzondiwa has already left the club.

Veteran Takesure Chinyama, Marshal Mudehwe, Nqobizitha Masuku, Tatenda Dzumbunu and Ali Sadiki are some of those tipped to leave the Zvishavane club.

FC Platinum spokesperson Chido Chizondo only confirmed the departure of Muzondiwa.

“Brian is the only one that I can confirm will be leaving the club this year,” said Chizondo.
