Villa's American defender not ruled out Leeds return

Loanee Eric Lichaj has not ruled out leaving his parent club Aston Villa for another stint with Championship outfit Leeds. The American defender is back at Villa Park having started 16 games during a successful loan spell at Elland Road.

The 22-year-old told the Yorkshire Evening Post: "If the right circumstances came around, I'd be glad to come back here. Everyone has been great, the players, the coaching staff and fans.

"Playing the amount of games has probably been the best thing. It's the longest stretch in my career and it's good to get that under my belt. More people have probably seen me now.

"Leeds have some very good players in the squad and good team intelligence and I wouldn't be surprised if they are around the promotion area next year." ,p>
