Vlaar to make exit u-turn?

Cape Town - Aston Villa defender Ron Vlaar has hinted at the possibility of signing a new deal which will keep him at the club beyond this summer.

That was the word from the Netherlands stalwart, whose current deal with the Birmingham-based club expires at the end of the season.

The 30-year-old was expected to leave Aston Villa during the off-season, with Manchester United one of several clubs rumoured to be interested in his services. However, the defender ultimately ended up staying with the Villans.
