Gabriel suspended

LONDON. — Aston Villa announced yesterday that they have suspended striker Gabriel Agbonlahor following reports he went out partying in London on the day of their relegation from the English Premier League.

British newspapers printed pictures of Agbonlahor (29) with laughing gas canisters during a night out, allegedly taken hours after Villa’s 1-0 defeat at Manchester United on Saturday condemned them to the drop.

Agbonlahor had previously been sidelined by Villa caretaker manager Eric Black due to concerns about his fitness.

“Aston Villa Football Club have today suspended Gabby Agbonlahor pending an internal investigation,” Villa said in a statement. — AFP.
