Rangers finished 15th, six points clear of the relegation zone but ten behind the playoff places.
The club are currently searching for a manager after placing Marti Cifuente on gardening leave in April.
But that isn’t stopping them from having a summer clear-out at Loftus Road.
The club have confirmed Kenneth Paal, Conor Clark, Samuel Manufor, Harry Murphy, and Casey Shann have all been released.
Paal has been in West London since 2022, joining the club from Dutch side Zwolle.
He has played over 120 times for the R’s, scoring six goals.
In an emotional statement on Instagram, he wrote: “From day one, I enjoyed every moment.
“The people at the club as well as my team-mates helped me and my family, and I will always be thankful.

“There were tough moments but my time with QPR made me a better person and a better player.
“I became a father here and my little one was born in London, so this will always be a special place and time for me. It was a life-changing period.”
Seven players remain locked in negotiations with the club over a new deal.
Lucas Andersen, Jack Colback, Jimmy Dunne, Morgan Fox, Joel Halliday, Noah McCann, Kieran Petrie and Nathan Shepperd.
QPR attempted to renew Dunne’s contract earlier in the season and blocked a move to Sheffield United in January.
The 27-year-old was voted the club’s player of the season by both supporters and his teammates.
Dunne is set to become a free agent if he is unable to sign a new deal in the capital.
