Kevin Lisbie looks set to quit Charlton Athletic this summer despite being offered a new contract to remain at The Valley.
Lisbie's current deal expires at the end of June and the 28-year-old striker has been offered fresh terms by Addicks manager Alan Pardew.

But after making only nine appearances during last season, the frustrated Jamaica international is ready to end his 12-year association with the Championship-bound club in a bid to kick-start his career.
"I've been told there is a deal at Charlton if I want it," he admitted.
"But I won't be guaranteed to be playing if I sign again. My agent has spoken to a few clubs and I probably will move on because, if the club tells you to talk to other teams, it's probably the time to go.
"I thought I would stay at Charlton for a long, long time and I have done.
"(Alan Pardew) Pards has come in and wants different people and I can understand that.
"I hope that I'll get a few attractive offers and I'm looking to play at Championship level and work my way back up."
Lisbie has started just 68 games for Charlton since first signing professional terms in 1995.
