Jorge Sampaoli has interested clubs Barcelona and Arsenal on alert.

The Argentine has been offered a contract extension by Sevilla but insists he will not concern himself with it until the end of the season.

"We appreciate that they are trying to renew our contracts but to do that while we are in the present is very difficult," said Sampaoli on Tuesday ahead of tonight's Champions League clash with Leicester City.

"We only want to live in the moment. The way we work is like this and there are many reasons to appreciate the present.

"This is the most important game for Sevilla, we want to be one of the best eight teams in Europe and that's more important than thinking about the future."

Both Barça and Arsenal are planning for the possible respective departures of Luis Enrique and Arsene Wenger this summer.
