Stephane Sessegnon has played down speculation linking him with a move away from Sunderland by insisting that he is happy on Wearside.

Recent reports had claimed that the 27-year-old was struggling to adapt to life in the North East, with Paris Saint-Germain believed to be willing to offer him a summer return to France.

However, the attacker has revealed that he has unfinished business at the Stadium of Light.

"I've got no problem with life here and it's always good news to hear that the manager wants to keep you," Sessegnon told Chronicle Live. "I'm aware of the speculation, but I can't do anything about it. As I've said before, I don't feel that my work here is finished.

"It's true that when I first came here, it was hard to get used to the style of play. But now I like the Premier League and I think I have improved.

"I'm playing for a team who like to play football, with great fans."

Sessegnon joined the Black Cats from PSG in 2011.
