Whatever the future holds for Aston Villa after the play-offs, young talent Alex Prosser will not be part of it.

The 20-year-old confirmed via Twitter yesterday that he will be leaving the club when his contract expires at the end of June.

Prosser had been in the Villa academy for over a decade, and now that time has come to an end.

Prosser made 16 appearances for Aston Villa’s under-23 side this season, scoring one goal.

He clinched a loan deal in March to play for non-league side Brackley Town.

His chances of breaking through into Aston Villa’s first team did not seem likely.

Moving on is best for Prosser, and will open up under-23 chances for younger Villa players.

Now he will be busy looking to secure his future elsewhere, hopefully at another Football League club.
