Ashley Young is to leave Aston Villa at the end of his contract this summer.

The 37-year-old rejoined Villa in 2021 after winning the Serie A title at Inter Milan.

'Aston Villa can confirm that Ashley Young will be leaving the club upon the expiration of his contract,' read a club statement.

'Everyone at Aston Villa would like to sincerely thank Ashley for his service to the club and wish him all the very best in his future endeavours.'

It comes despite Young revealing his hopes that he would sign a new contract extension at Villa Park - following their 2-1 victory over Brighton which sealed them a place in next season's Europa Conference League.
