Emile Heskey is set to be shown the door by Aston Villa.
The Sun says Heskey is facing the Aston Villa axe this summer - after being told there will be no new contract talks until then.
Negotiations over a new deal for the ex-England striker have yet to start.
And with Villa owner Randy Lerner looking to cut the wage bill of Alex McLeish's side, Heskey, 34, could be out on his ear.
