Livingston have confirmed that defender Luiyi de Lucas has left the club.
The Dominican Republic international joined the Almondvale side last year and has made 25 appearances during his time in Scotland.
But the 29-year-old has been suffering homesickness in recent months and requested a move to be closer to his family.
Livingston confirmed the departure on Wednesday and wished the player well in his career.
Manager David Martindale said: “Luiyi came and spoke to me a few weeks back and stressed that he was struggling with homesickness and was missing being with his family.
“We agreed that Luiyi would continue until the winter break as to not leave us short in the last few weeks before agreeing to terminate his contract to allow him to return closer to home and family.
“I wish Luiyi well wherever his next move is and thank him for his time at the club.”
