Laurent Depoitre is one of five senior players who will be released by Huddersfield following their relegation from the Premier League.

Depoitre made 23 appearances during the 2018-19 Premier League season but failed to score a single goal and registered just one assist.

The 30-year-old became Huddersfield's record signing in 2017 when he arrived from Porto, but that fee was later overtaken in the same transfer window when Aaron Mooy moved to the club from Manchester City.

Goalkeeper Jonas Lossl confirmed his plans to leave Huddersfield at the beginning of May, while Erik Durm, Danny Williams and Jack Payne will also not be at the club next season.

The loan spells of Isaac Mbenza and Jason Puncheon will also come to an end, although the club will take the option to make Mbenza's move a permanent one this summer. The paperwork on that deal is still to be completed.

Huddersfield have taken the option of a year's contract extension on academy defender Rarmani Edmonds-Green, while six of his team-mates - Olly Dyson, Ben Jackson, Luke Mewitt, Micah Obiero, Dom Tear and Oran Thompson - have been offered new professional contracts.
