Milnes is understood to have found another county, with former club Kent a possible destination.

The 31-year-old, who joined Yorkshire ahead of the 2023 campaign, has struggled for game-time following a series of back injuries.

He will continue to be available to Yorkshire for the rest of the season, with three County Championship matches left and a minimum of eight games in the One-Day Cup.

Milnes, who was out of contract at the end of the year, said in a statement: "After some thought, I have made the tough decision to leave Yorkshire at the end of the season.

"At this stage in my career, with the uncertainty this year has brought, long-term security became a big factor as well as being closer to some family.
