Ottawa Fury FC announced Wednesday that several players from the club's inaugural season will not be returning next year.

Coach Marc Dos Santos promising significant changes for year two after the expansion North American Soccer League finished 7-6-14 (W-L-T) last season, good for 8th in the 10-team league. The Fury decided not to exercise contract options for defenders Ramon Soria and Kenny Caceros, as well as forward Pierre-Rudolph Mayard.

The club also decided not to re-sign striker Vini Dantas, who scored the first goal in club history after stepping in for injured striker Tommy Heinemann to start the season.

Soria, a native of Alicante, Spain, made 15 appearances for Fury last season and played a bigger role after Brazilian defender Maykon returned home. Caceros, who is from Ottawa, saw only a few minutes of action in two appearances for Fury while Laval's Mayard had one goal in 13 appearances.

As many as nine new faces could be with the club when it begins play in the spring next year.
