FORMER England flyhalf Danny Cipriani has left the Melbourne Rebels midway through the Super Rugby season, cutting short his controversy-marred stint with the Australian club.
Cipriani, who was to leave the Rebels at the end of the season to join English club Sale Sharks, had been granted an early release, the team said.
Rebels CEO Steve Borland said in a statement: "Danny goes with our blessing and we thank him for his contribution to our club during his time here. Essentially the time is right for both parties to part company, the decision is amicable and we wish him all the best for the future."
"Rebels want 2 build for 2013 ... That's their main aim for rest of season. And I can prepare accordingly and to the best of my powers for the season with (Sale Sharks)," he said on his Twitter account.
"Going to be sad to leave all my team mates. Made some friends for life over here. The back room staff at the Rebels don't get enough praise."
