Crystal Palace striker Kevin Phillips is set to leave the club during the January transfer window.
The 40-year-old has struggled to get game time in the Premier League this season, after his penalty strike in the play-off final got the club promoted in May this year.
After talks with Tony Pulis he has agreed to move on and try and find a club who he can play games for, for the rest of the season.
"It went well for me at the end of the season and then the play-off final, getting the goal and securing promotion was right up there with one of my highest achievements in football", he told the Official Palace website.
"I have to thank the club and the supporters who have been absolutely magnificent to me and welcomed me with open arms from day one. That will stay in my memories for a long time."
Tony Pulis has nothing but praise for the former Sunderland man: "He is a fantastic professional and there is no way I would stand in the way of what he wants to do.
"He has been brilliant to have around the place in the last few weeks that I have been here and of course he played a major role in getting this club promoted through the play-offs.
"His attitude in and around the rest of the players is first class and you can see why, at 40 years of age, he is still playing in the Premier League. I wish him every success in the future."
