Swedish defender Jonas Olsson has hinted that he may be prepared to stay with West Bromwich Albion despite their relegation from the Premier League.

The 26-year-old has scored three times in 28 appearances for the Baggies this season and has been linked with several other top-flight clubs.

However, Olsson told the Birmingham Mail: "I don't want to think about the future now, but I have a contract here and as it is now I want to fulfil it.

"That's the way I feel. I have a contract. Of course every player wants to play as high as possible but I like it here and it's a great club.

"But this is the time for being disappointed and I don't want to think about the future right now.

"We are all disappointed now, so let's be disappointed for a while and try to finish off the season against Blackburn and then start thinking about the future.

"It's a shame we couldn't stay up to go into the Premier League next season with a year's experience, but that's the way it is.

"There is major disappointment. It's the first time I have been with a team that's been relegated and it's not a good feeling."
