Akinbiyi is surplus to requirements
Ade Akinbiyi's Crystal Palace future has been thrown into doubt after being omitted from their pre-season training camp in Spain.
The 28-year-old striker cost the Eagles £2.2m when he signed from Leicester last February.
But he has started just 11 league games since, scoring three times.
A possible transfer to Stoke broke down because of Akinbiyi's high wages, which are also proving prohibitive for a loan move.
And his future at Selhurst Park looks bleak after manager Steve Kember admitted he did not fit in with his plans.
Amazing isn't it ? This bloke would rather not get anything than accept a more realistic contract. If Brighton Rock is right about his £12,500 a week (and why shouldn't he be ? He normally is) I'm afraid that Mr Akinbyi has 'Ade' it. I wonder how many other players (or their agents) will take this narrow minded view ?
