John Sutton is looking to cement his Motherwell future by continuing to help push the Lanarkshire club up the Clydesdale Bank Premier League table.
Sutton's contract expires at the end of the season and he has had no formal talks about an extension. The English striker's agent has declared that clubs from south of the border have enquired about his client but Sutton is keen to remain at Fir Park.
"My contract runs out in the summer so obviously it would good to get something sorted out," the 27-year-old said.
"All you can do is do the best you can on the pitch. If you do that hopefully other things look after themselves.
"But obviously with injuries and having a family now, you do have to think about it.
"I love playing for Motherwell and I just need to keep trying to play as well as I can.
"I've got to think if I play as well as I can, hopefully they will want to keep me here and if they don't want to keep me, hopefully someone else will give me a shot."
Sutton played for five clubs in five seasons between leaving first club Tottenham and signing for Well in August 2008, and he believes being settled at a club he enjoys has improved his game.
"I think it helps linking up with players, you get to know each other better and get settled into a way of playing," he said.
"In the past it was never because I wanted to move, it was because I was either doing well and getting a move or wanting to try and play more. I've been really happy here and I would like that to continue."
