We can confirm that Kai Kennedy has left the club with immediate effect.

As many will be aware we have been dealing with an ongoing issue internally. It is a private matter that club officials and management have worked tirelessly to resolve whilst trying to protect the interests of the club.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to reach a suitable resolution and the situation has become untenable. We therefore feel it is time to draw a line under the matter and in the best interest of Queens we have mutually agreed to terminate Kai's contract.

We can now move on and let the manager continue to build his squad as it is crucial we have the players prepared to give their all for Queen of the South FC.
