Obertan, Marveaux released by Newcastle

Gabriel Obertan and Sylvain Marveaux have left Newcastle United by mutual consent. Former Manchester United winger Obertan, who has battled a hamstring problem for much of the season, has not played since the 2-2 draw with Chelsea in September. Marveaux spent last season on loan with Guingamp in Ligue 1 and has not played for the senior Newcastle side this term, making the matchday squad on just two occasions.
