Pendlebury, who joined from Reading 12 months ago, was the only member of the group to play in the league for the Chairboys during the 2021/22 season.
In all, the 20-year-old played 10 competitive matches for Gareth Ainsworth’s men, scoring three goals.
Those strikes included a double against Cheltenham Town in August in League One, as well as scoring against Long Crendon in the quarter-finals of this year’s Berks & Bucks Cup.
He spent the second part of the campaign on loan at Non League Woking, where he played four games.
Olly Pendlebury and Andre Burley released by Wycombe after play-off defeat...weird one as Pendlebury impressed early on in the season and I quite liked him in the brief spell we saw of him #readingfc

Others who will leave Wanderers include goalkeeper, Adam Przybek, who played seven times and kept two clean sheets.
Andre Burley will also depart the club after spending two years with Wycombe.

During that time, he played for Hungerford Town and Maidenhead Town respectively in the Non League on loan, whilst also making his international debut for St Kitts & Nevis.
Frenchman Jean-Baptiste 'JB' Fischer, who also scored in the win over Long Crendon back in February, will too leave along with 21-year-old, Max Ram.
Finally, Malachi Linton, who spent the season with King’s Lynn Town in the National League, will also depart.
