Villa boss Eck opens door to re-signing LA Galaxy's Keane

Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish would welcome the chance to sign LA Galaxy striker Robbie Keane again.

Keane has scored three goals in five starts and impressed in a deeper role behind Darren Bent.

McLeish said: "Will Robbie return? I don't know. We have to see where we are in terms of recruitment in the summer but Robbie has had a good influence on the place.

"Where he is right now probably has a glamorous feeling about it but at the same time he's got a bit of adulation from Villa fans so maybe that has probably whetted his appetite."
