Villa defender admits he wants to leave

Aston Villa defender Jores Okore has told press in his homeland that he could have already played his last game for the Midlands side in an interview where he also touched on his fall out with interim manager Eric Black.

Okore, 23, previously admitted a few months back that he was unsure on whether he would remain at the Villans this summer.

This can also be an end to it all for me at Aston Villa – Jores Okore

The centre-back joined Villa under Paul Lambert in the summer of 2013 from FC Nordsjælland and has since gone on to make only 46 appearances in a claret and blue shirt due to multiple injuries and falling completely out of favour under the man who signed him. Most recently, he had a differentiation of opinion with interim boss Eric Black which led to him being told to train with the under 21 squad.

I am 23-years-old and will play football every weekend. I expect and I hope that is also going to happen in the future.

The Danish international, who was once linked with a move to Chelsea before arriving in Birmingham, told the Danish paper Ekstra Bladet that he has no ambition to play in the Championship next season. He revealed he also could be fined over the incident with Black.
