Aston Villa boss Alex McLeish admits there is uncertainty about Carlos Cuellar's future at the club but he remains a Villa player.[LNB] Rangers are keen to re-sign the 29-year-old but Cuellar is currently recovering from a knee problem, and the club are reluctant to bring him back to Ibrox just yet.[LNB]At the weekend Gers manager Ally McCoist admitted he is having second thoughts of signing the Spaniard, but McLeish remains hopeful the transfer will finally go through.[LNB]"Carlos is a very good experienced player," the Villa boss told the Express & Star.[LNB]"I think Rangers have gone cold on the idea so, as far as we are concerned, he is a Villa player.[LNB]"He is a solid defender and did a tremendous job for Rangers when he was up there in his first spell. He is a terrific defender and is very experienced cover.[LNB]"He is not far away from running, so he is maybe a week or two away from joining the group. Will he still be here in a fortnight? I can't predict that.[LNB]"We just have to get on with things and keep plugging away to get results."
