Sunderland midfielder Sebastian Larsson admits he's yet to hear from the club about a new deal.

The Swede now has less than a year to run on his existing contract.

"It has been busy this summer and we have said we'll take it a little further," the 28-year-old told Folkbladet.

Larsson has left the door open to signing for IFK Norrkoping later in his career, where his father once played.

"He played here before I was born, but I went and watched a few games when I was younger.

"Well, who knows. You should never close any doors."
