Godswill Ekpolo departs Apollon Limassol FC after contract conclusion
Apollon Limassol FC has officially announced the departure of Nigerian defender Godswill Ekpolo following the expiration of his contract. After a year and several months with the Cypriot club, Ekpolo has decided to move on, despite the club’s efforts to retain him.
The separation was announced via Apollon Limassol’s social media channels, where the club expressed gratitude towards Ekpolo for his time and contributions. “Apollon Football (PUBLIC) Ltd company informs the fans of our team that our cooperation with Godswill Ekpolo has ended.
The footballer, after consultations lasting several months, informed Tuesday evening (05/21) that he did not accept the third, much improved proposal that had been submitted to him the previous days by our team,” the club stated.
During his tenure with Apollon Limassol, the 29-year-old right-back was known for his professionalism and consistent performance on the field.
Despite the club’s keen interest in extending his stay with an improved contract offer, Ekpolo remained resolute in his decision to seek new opportunities.
“Apollon Limassol expresses its thanks to Godswill Ekpolo, who was a model professional, and wishes him every success in both his personal and professional life,” the club’s statement continued, highlighting the mutual respect and amicable nature of the parting.
Ekpolo’s departure marks the end of a notable chapter for both the player and the club.
His defensive skills and experience were significant assets to the team during his stint, and his departure leaves a gap that Apollon Limassol will need to fill ahead of the new season.
As Ekpolo looks forward to the next phase of his career, his future remains a subject of speculation. Clubs seeking a seasoned and reliable defender will undoubtedly be keen to secure his services, given his track record and the professional demeanor he has exhibited throughout his career.
Apollon Limassol, on the other hand, will need to strategize on bolstering their defense line, ensuring that they maintain their competitive edge in the Cypriot league.
The club’s proactive approach in attempting to retain Ekpolo suggests a forward-thinking strategy as they prepare for the upcoming challenges.
Ekpolo’s journey with Apollon Limassol has come to a respectful and professional close, setting the stage for new beginnings for both the player and the club.
