Defender James Collins has refused to get paid after injuring himself in training with Aston Villa.
The highly experienced defender earned himself a £10,000-a-week until the end of January after impressing Dean Smith but he picked up a knock shortly after.
Collins then tore up the paperwork of the deal worth around £50,000.
The Aston Villa manager is thought to be impressed with the player’s attitude and he will give the defender another chance to earn a new deal once he is fit.
It will be interesting to see if this affects Villa’s transfer plans in January.
