The 35-year-old has made 116 appearances in the Premier League and has kept 28 clean sheets whilst playing for Burnley and Aston Villa.

Will we see Liverpool sign a goalkeeper this summer?
The Daily Mail have reported that Liverpool are assessing their back-up goalkeeper options as the likes of Caoimhin Kelleher and Adrian could both leave the club this summer.
The 22-year-old displaced Adrian as Liverpool's second choice earlier this season, however the Reds are reportedly prepared to let him go out on loan to have regular game-time for another side. Adrian is set to be out of contract next month and he is yet to take up Liverpool's offer of an extension.
Loris Karius is still on the books at Liverpool and after spending the season on loan at Union Berlin, the Daily Mail have said that the 27-year-old is wanted by Stuttgart. His contract is set to expire in 2022.
