French club, Nice have released Ghana Under-20 defender Mohamed Yahaya after just one season with the club.

The 20-year-old Ghanaian arrived in France at the start of the season but failed to break into the first team.

A knee injury sustained in his first month with the club further dimmed his chances.

Yahaya joined the club after impressing at the Toulon Football Festival in France last year.

His agents are expected to find a new team for him in France to foster his European career.
