Wales pair Leigh Halfpenny and Rhys Patchell are among 15 players who will leave the Scarlets at the end of the season.
With playing budgets going down in Wales next season, all four regions are having to cut their cloth accordingly which means cutting the size of their squads.
Metronomic goal kicker Halfpenny joined the west Walians from Toulon six years ago and has scored 526 points in 58 games while talented outside-half Patchell was a key component of the side which won the PRO12 title back in 2017.
