Villa's Agbonlahor not leaving for Sunderland

Aston Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor has laughed off rumours linking him with Sunderland.

The 25-year old is reportedly attracting plenty of interest from former Villa boss Martin O'Neill but he insists that a summer shift to the Stadium of Light is utter nonsense.

"Looking at it over the summer I'm just laughing at myself thinking: 'where do they get these links from?," he told The Sun.

"I'm an Aston Villa player, it's my home club, I love the club, as long as I'm contracted to the club then I'll continue to play for them - until I get told otherwise.

"When you've played with a manager as good as Martin O'Neill you are going to be linked with him. But, for me, it's just speculation."
