Luke Moore is to enter into talks with O'Dreary about his future, according to his agent.

Talking to the Birmingham Mail, Moore's agent revealed that Moore turned down a move to Fulham in the summer to stay at Villa and was actually on the way to Glasgow Rangers when Doug decided to meet Moore's demands.

To allow a highly rated prospect like Moore to get to the point of travelling to another club before offering him a satisfactory deal is just not acceptable.

Moore has been watched by Manchester United in the past, but he has seen himself removed completely from the squad for the tail end of last season.

Even Gab has moved ahead of him despite Luke finishing the joint Premiership top scorer at the club.

I wouldn't want to lose a youngster like Luke, but if the manager isn't going to play him what's the point in staying?
