St Mirren have confirmed a raft of top players will leave the club at the expiry of their contracts.
Major first-team stars including Stephen McGinn, Tony Andreu, Danny Mullen and Gary Mackenzie will all leave Simple Digital Arena when the furlough scheme is concluded. Goalkeeper Vaclav Hladky was offered a new contract by the club however he has also chosen to refuse the deal and leave Paisley.
The club have confirmed that they hope Ryan Flynn will sign a new contract but Ross Wallace and Cody Cooke will depart.
Jim Goodwin said: "It has been really difficult to have to say goodbye to these players especially in the current circumstances. However, the opportunity to support the players through the close season is one the club felt was important. It goes without saying that everyone at the club wishes all of them the very best for the future."

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
