Report: Gabriel Agbonlahor to leave Aston Villa in summer

Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor will end his 17-year association with the club at the end of the season, according to a report.

The ex-England international has spent his entire career with the Villans, emerging through the youth ranks in 2005 and going on to make close to 350 league appearances.

Villa will not renew the 31-year-old's contract this summer, however, with The Telegraph suggesting that they are keen to get his £25,000-a-week wages off their books.

Agbonlahor, capped three times by the Three Lions, is said to be contemplating a move to Major League Soccer to relaunch his career.

The same report indicates that Ross McCormack and Micah Richards are two more of the Villans' fringe players that will be offloaded.
