Stephen Warnock is preparing to leave Aston Villa.
The Mirror says the defender wants to follow Gerard Houllier out of the exit door, with Wigan, Bolton and Stoke all ready to enter a £2million auction for his services.
The England international clashed with Houllier last year and has been completely frozen out of the first-team picture since the December defeat at Manchester City.
Disillusioned with life at Villa Park, the 29-year-old will now attempt to force through a cut-price summer switch.
