Ron Vlaar has cast doubt on his Villa future after insisting he can play at a higher level.

The 30-year-old Dutch international has been offered a new contract at Villa Park but hinted he will consider his options.
"I have it in consideration," said Vlaar. "I'll think about it. I want to maximise my career and think I can go a step higher."
Vlaar joined Villa from Feyenoord for £3.2million in 2012 and made 88 appearances in three seasons often blighted by injury.
Boss Tim Sherwood has made no secret of his desire to keep the centre-back, who has been forced to pull out of the Dutch squad ahead of their Euro 2016 qualifier with Latvia after the recurrence of a knee injury.
