Sunderland boss Gus Poyet expects to be at the club for the start of next season despite reports linking him away from the Stadium of Light.

Sunderland boss Gus Poyet has insisted that he will still be at the club next season.

The Uruguayan has been linked with an exit from the Stadium of Light after guiding the club to safety in the Premier League.

However, he has expressed his desire to stay with the Black Cats despite being flattered by the reported interest from elsewhere.

When asked if he would be in charge at the start of the next season, he told reporters. "Yes. You are scaring me now. What do you know that I don't know?

"The rumours are natural, there are so many rumours all the time. But that means you are doing something special or you are being recognised for something, whatever it is.

"It could be the way your team plays, or it could be the achievement that you made or it could be that before, I didn't have on my CV Barclays Premier League experience and now I do in a very difficult situation."

Sunderland finished 14th in the Premier League but fell to a 3-1 defeat to Swansea City on the final day of the season.
