Central Coast Mariners have confirmed the departure of 10 players following the expiration of their contracts. Miguel Di Pizio, the 20-year-old attacker who scored the crucial second goal in the Mariners' 2023-24 Grand Final win over Melbourne Victory, is among those leaving the club. Di Pizio's strike in extra time not only put his side 2-1 in front but also made him the youngest goalscorer in A-League Grand Final history at 18 years and 141 days old. He was part of the historic treble-winning Mariners side that clinched the AFC Cup and the Isuzu UTE A-League Premiership/Championship double. Christian Theoharous, who made 99 appearances for the Mariners, and Nathan Paull, who featured 18 times in all competitions during the 2023-24 Isuzu UTE A-League campaign, are also departing. James Donachie, who made 21 appearances and was voted the Macca's Fans' Player of the Season, is leaving after one season with the club. Sabit Ngor, who found the back of the net six times, is also on the lookout for a new club. Youngsters Nathanael Blair, Will Kennedy, and Logan Sambrook have been released, along with experienced Japanese winger Kaito Taniguchi and midfielder Seth Clark. The departures mark a significant change for the Mariners as they prepare for the new season. The club will need to rebuild and find new talent to replace the departing players. With the transfer window open, the Mariners will be looking to make some key signings to strengthen their squad. The future of the club is uncertain, but one thing is clear: the Mariners will be looking to make a strong comeback in the upcoming season.
