Ebbsfleet United have announced they are releasing Dean Pooley, Brendan Kiernan and Jordan Sanderson.

Pooley, 28, made 89 appearances during two spells as a Fleet player and he will stay with the club in a non-playing role - as assistant to general manager Dave Archer.

Meanwhile, former Bromley winger Kiernan moves on having played 14 times for the club - who loaned him out to Hampton & Richmond Borough towards the end of last season.

Sanderson, like his two former team-mates, was brought to Ebbsfleet by Steve Brown but barely featured, starting only one game during his season at Stonebridge Road.

Six players have now left the club this summer, following the departures of goalkeeper Jamie Turner and midfielders Mark Gower and Luke Rooney in May.
