CONTRACTS: Zak Whitbread released by Shrewsbury in England

Yup  that's Clint Dempsey at Fulham and Zak Whitbread, Norwich, as they battle in the EPL
The linchpin of last season's defensive corp at England's League One Shrewsbury Town, Zak Whitbread, has been released by the team in its annual retention listing.

Zak joined Shrewsbury in September 2015 (his contract is up May 30), its uncertain what Zak, now 32, will do in the coming years. Zak played 21 times in the league this past season plus an additional 5 times in the FA Cup.
The early years at Liverpool
Houston TX. Zak started his career at Liverpool, working through the ranks, U18, U21, and appeared twice for the senior squad before being loaned out to Millwall a couple of times, which ultimately led to his sale to Millwall and 4 pretty successful years at the London club where he was a fan favorite. After that Zak represented Norwich, Leicester City, Derby and then Shrewsbury. Zak represented the USA twice in the senior squad and 6 times at the U20 level.

Good Luck to Zak, lets hope he finds a new club soon.
