Aston Villa may pay Shay Given off to leave the club according to reports.

The Donegal man fell behind Brad Guzan this season and may receive €6 million to end his contract three years early according to the Star.

It follows the news that Richard Dunne's contract will not be renewed, with the Ireland defender departing this summer.

Given retired from international football after Euro 2012, although rumours suggested he would return earlier this year.
