Eastbourne Eagles have released Brendan Johnson from their team for the coming season.
The move is likely to be to make room within the points limit for a new signing.
Eagles chairman Martin Dugard said it was with regret that Brendan had been released.
He added: “At this stage I cannot give the full details but supporters can rest assured it is in the best interests of the club for this season and beyond.
“Circumstances have changed. It was a tough decision to make and we have circulated other clubs to say Brendan is now available.
"He is a victim of speedway’s numbers game and that is solely the reason why we have taken this action.
“We wish him all the best in 2015 and have told him that he is welcome to come to Arlington to practise before the season begins.”
