Saints winger Steve De Ridder has joined Belgian side FC Utrecht after Saints cancelled his contract by mutual consent.
De Ridder joined Saints in 2011 but struggled to hold down a regular place in the starting line-up and was left out of the first team squad touring party this summer.
De Ridder only made 12 starts for Saints, with a further 32 appearances coming from the bench. He scored four goals.
De Ridder had one year remaining on his Saints deal, but is now able to join Utrecht as a free agent.
