The Central Coast Mariners have granted Costa Rican forward Marco Urena a release from the final year of his contract.
Urena was released on Thursday, citing personal reasons for a desire to return to his homeland, in turn, opening up a visa spot for the Mariners.
The 32-year-old made 48 A-League Men appearances for the Mariners and scored 12 goals.
"I would like to thank Central Coast Mariners and all its supporters for giving my family an amazing experience in the past two seasons," Urena said.
"My family is disappointed to be returning home but I must return to Costa Rica for family reasons."
Urena joins a growing list of Mariners players heading for the exit after the club finished in fifth spot on the table and were runners-up in the FFA Cup in Nick Montgomery's first year in charge.
First-choice goalkeeper Mark Birighitti was transferred to Dundee United on Tuesday, with right back Lewis Miller (Hibernian) and centre back Kye Rowles (Hearts) also opting to further their careers in Scotland.
Experienced midfielder Oliver Bozanic has joined the Western Sydney Wanderers, while defender Ruon Tongyik has yet to finalise a club for the upcoming season.
