Jose Luis Marti remains confident of his place at Sevilla.

The experienced midfielder has fallen off the first team radar since Manolo Jimenez replaced Juande Ramos as head coach.

But Marti says: "These are the circumstances that happen in football. The only thing I can do is be prepared, knowing that I will end up playing as I have done in recent years, without any concern.

"I am convinced, because I believe in my ability, because if not, I would not be here."
