Belgian First Division B club Westerlo have released Emmanuel Emenike, just two months after he joined the club as a free agent in September.
Two months ago, the former Fenerbahce and West Ham United striker joined Bob Peeters' side with the ambition of helping them secure promotion to the top-flight after having a successful trial.
According to the club statement, Emenike did not reach the expected level of performance after managing just one start in five league games with no goal to his credit.
His short-term contract was to expire at the end of the season but both parties agreed on its termination on Thursday.
