Sutton to stay at Villa

Norwich City target Chris Sutton is likely stay with Aston Villa next season if he decides not to retire from the game.

Agent Tony McGill told the Eastern Daily Press newspaper: "Chris feels he owes Martin O'Neill, that is what he is like,"

"It all depends on whether he keeps on playing, and the first person he will tell is Martin O'Neill,"

"I would have thought if he wanted to play on he would be offered another contract. While I wouldn't dismiss the Norwich link, I would not think it was a strong possibility. But Norwich have made their interest known and it is an option.

"I approached Norwich City, obviously under different management and Chris clearly would have given the move serious consideration.

"It was purely the manager's decision and you have to respect individual manager's views. Nigel Worthington did not want him - although I am certain one or two others at the club did."
