Sunderland goalkeeper Simon Mignolet has declared that he is aware of mounting speculation over his future and remains "ambitious" about furthering his career.
The Belgian international enjoyed a consistent season on Wearside, leading to persistent rumours of interest from Liverpool and Arsenal in recent weeks.
Mignolet has insisted that he remains calm about stories of a summer transfer and will consider his long-term plans after returning from international duty next month.
He told the Daily Mail: "I am ambitious, and I read the press as you do. It has been a difficult season with Sunderland. It's not much fun to play bottom of the League, and I think Sunderland will know they have to change something to prevent another season like that.
"I am happy with my season. I played 38 matches. Few players can say they did that in a Premier League season. I also managed 11 clean sheets, which is not bad if you're playing at the bottom of the division. To do that, you have to be mentally strong, and I think it shows I have progressed a lot as a goalkeeper.
"I know there has been talk about Arsenal, but I haven't heard anything or received a phone call from Arsene Wenger. I will stay calm and focused on the Belgium games, and after that, go on holiday with my girlfriend. We will see what happens."
The 24-year-old is currently with the Belgium squad preparing for Friday's crucial World Cup qualifier against Serbia.
