King's Lynn have said last season's top goalscorer Gold Omotayo is leaving the club this summer.

In a statement, the Linnets said chairman Stephen Cleeve and Gold had held constructive talks but the player felt it was time to move on.

As reported in Lynn News, Cleeve said: “We’re grateful for Gold’s contribution. He has dealt with things in a very mature way.

"He always acknowledged the part this club played in helping his career move forward, and is a model professional.”

Gold scored 25 goals for King's Lynn in the National League North last season, helping the club achieve a play-off spot.

The Swiss striker has moved to National League side AFC Fylde.
