Cherries to release trio
Chukki Eribenne, Amos Foyewa and Bernard Narada have failed to secure first team football this term and O'Driscoll has told them it is best to leave and try their luck elsewhere.
"From the players' point of view, the earlier you tell them, the better it is," O'Drsicoll told the club website.
"You want to help them get themselves sorted out with a new contract here or elsewhere and we try to pick a point that is good for both the club and the personnel.
"Narada has been here for three years, as has Chukki; Amos has been here for two years as well.
"These players need to be playing first team football and for the foreseeable future, maybe it's not going to happen here.
"Hopefully this is the best thing for all parties."
