Breen sent from Coventry

Irish international Gary Breen is to leave Coventry City after rejecting a new deal with the club.

Coventry - under new manager Gary McAllister - have released 11 players in preparation for next season, including Breen and Marcus Hall.

The pair both rejected new contracts to stay at Highfield Road and will join nine others in leaving the club.

"Both players rejected offers made to them by the club and will not be staying," a spokesman said.

Coventry will not renew deals for Paul Trollope or Marc Edworthy, while reserve team players Shaun Hope, Mark Magennis, Thomas Cudworth and Craig Strachan have been told to leave.

Academy youngsters Danny Nelson, Jason Ashby and Matthew Cook have been axed before taking up the third year of their scholarship.
