Sunderland boss Gus Poyet is set to decide on his off contract players in the coming days.

The Evening Chronicle says Poyet is believed to want to hold on to Jack Colback and Seb Larsson, while Phil Bardsley may yet remain at the club.

But some will move on, with Andrea Dossena having been paid up early, while Carlos Cuellar and Craig Gardner have indicated they are also on their way.
