Ottawa Fury FC have announced they have parted ways with central defender Omar Jarun. The Palestinian international played 16 matches for Fury, scoring two goals in 1078 minutes playing time.

Fury FC coach Marc Dos Santos has previously mentioned that he may reduce the number of central defenders before the start of the season, following the signings of Rafael Alves and Colin Falvey this winter. Jarun has been absent from pre-season preparations this season, spending time with family, according to the Fury gaffer.

OFFC Review creator Namu Yoon previously stated that Jarun was in Atlanta, while Sun reporter Chris Hofley reported that Jarun didn’t re-sign with the club in November 2014 as previously thought by some (myself included), but rather was on a two year contract from his first year. He appears to have left the club by mutual consent however no further details were released as pre club policy.

Jarun has joined India I-League club Bharat FC, playing out of Pune. The move will likely allow Jarun more playing time and hopefully earn his spot back on the Palestinian National Team.

Omar, Thank you for all your hard work, a year of dedication and scoring goals for our beautiful club. You will always be a part of this clubs history.
