Charlton Athletic to release Danny Haynes

Charlton Athletic have decided to release striker Danny Haynes in an effort to cut costs at The Valley, according to a report.

The 25-year-old, who has notched seven goals in 20 appearances in the Championship this season, will leave in the summer when his contract expires.

According to Sky Sports News, the Addicks were keen to keep the England Under-19 international, but have been forced to let him go.

A number of Championship clubs are believed to be interested in his signature.

Haynes joined Charlton from Barnsley in January 2012, helping them to win promotion from League One.
