Aston Villa have confirmed they have offered Ron Vlaar a contract extension.

In a statement on Villa's website they reveal that a new deal is on the table for the Dutch defender.

As reported in the Birmingham Mail last week, the 30-year-old centre half has asked for more time to make up his mind.

Rival Premier League clubs and other suitors from across Europe are believed to be interested in signing Vlaar.

Villa's website confirmed: "Villa have offered a new contract to Ron Vlaar, whose previous deal expires at the end of this month."
