Sheringham Released

Last updated : 30 April 2013 By Bournemouth Co-Ordinator

AFC Bournemouth have made it known that they've released young striker Charlie Sheringham following a long injury lay off after the 24 year old was forced off the pitch in a League One match having scored for the Cherries at Brentford.

Manager Eddie Howe is quoted in the Bournemouth Evening Echo on his tough call to let Sheringham go, as saying: "Through no fault of his own, Charlie was very unfortunate to sustain a serious injury just a couple of months after he had moved here and he missed a lot of football. Thankfully, he returned towards the end of this season and did really well during a loan spell with Dartford. We have reluctantly decided to let him go but it was a very tough decision. We just felt that following promotion to the Championship and with the current strikers we have in the squad, Charlie was probably not going to get enough game time. He was a pleasure to work with during our time here and we would like to wish him all the best for the future".
