Newport County have confirmed that the contract of striker Chris Zebroski has been terminated after he was jailed for four years and four months for two separate assaults.

The 28-year-old was sentenced at Swindon Crown Court today after admitting four charges of robbery, attempted robbery and assault in relation to two incidents.

Following the sentencing, Newport released a statement on their official website, which read: "Newport County have noted the prison sentence handed down to striker Chris Zebroski today.

"The club have always had the welfare and well-being of Chris at heart and have worked hard with Chris and the PFA throughout.

"However, we would like to make it clear that we do not condone any of the actions for which Zebroski has been found guilty. Regrettably, the club are left with no other option than to terminate Chris's contract."
