Aston Villa goalkeeper Shay Given has suggested that he will leave the club this summer following discussions with manager Paul Lambert.

Reports have claimed in The Herald that the shot-stopper has been considering his future with the Midlands outfit due to Brad Guzan taking his number one spot this season.

"Last night I had a meeting with manager Paul Lambert and we both agreed that I should be playing first-team football," the Irish Examiner quotes Given as saying. "And that's not happening at Villa right now."

The 37-year-old currently has a year remaining on his contract.
