Powell’s career at Wasps looks to have come to an end
Wales back-row forward Andy Powell is unlikely to be offered a new contract at Wasps, BBC Sport can reveal.
Powell was involved in a brawl in a London bar last month.
The club’s board have examined CCTV footage of the incident, and Powell looks set to be out of a deal.
Wasps are expected to issue a statement later on Wednesday. Powell, 29, was suspended indefinitely on 19 April following an incident at the Walkabout pub in Shepherd’s Bush, west London.
Powell joined the London club on a one-year contract in July 2010, after being released by Cardiff Blues.
Initially, both Powell and ex-England prop Tim Payne, 31, were banned pending an investigation by the High Wycombe-based club into the events at the London pub.
Two days later, Wasps lifted their suspension of Payne, focusing their attentions on Powell.
Powell, who joined Wasps from Cardiff Blues in the summer, pleaded guilty to driving a golf buggy while unfit through drink in March 2010. He was banned from driving for 15 months and fined £1,000 as a result.
Capped 17 times by Wales, he has made 21 appearances for Wasps this season, scoring one try.
