Aston Villa can confirm that Mark Delaney has left his role in the club’s Academy.
Mark joined the Academy coaching staff in 2008 after a successful playing career during which he made 193 appearances for the club and won 36 international caps for Wales.
Most recently, Mark has been Senior Professional Development Phase Coach working with the U23 squad.
He was in charge of a Villa team made up exclusively of Academy players which played Liverpool in an FA Cup third-round tie last year following a COVID outbreak in the first-team squad.
The club would like to record its sincere thanks to Mark for his service to Aston Villa and wish him every success for the future.
