Gabriel Agbonlahor left out as Aston Villa probe holiday contact

Gabriel Agbonlahor will not feature against Chelsea as managerless Aston Villa carry out an investigation into the striker's conduct.

The 29-year-old academy product has only made 15 Barclays Premier League appearances for the bottom club this season, and his future at Villa Park looks bleaker after Friday's announcement.

A tweet from Villa announced that Agbonlahor, who was pictured apparently smoking a shisha pipe during a recent holiday in Dubai, would not be involved in Saturday's early afternoon clash with Chelsea while an internal investigation into his behaviour is carried out.
