Thomas Sorensen has rubbished reports that he could be on his way out of Aston Villa, in order to make way for Jussi Jaaskelainen.

However, while conceding he is aware of the possibility that Villa may bring in another goalkeeper, the Dane is confident that he has the ability to hold on to his position as first choice.

"There is actually not much news in that, because Villa have been linked with lots of players," Sorensen told viasatsport.com.

"I know I am good enough to be the first choice at the club and don't care about the rumours in the English media.

"I believe I will be playing for Aston Villa next season too. I feel myself that I played well last season.

"Therefore, I don't believe that Martin O'Neill wants to offload. Rather, I believe O'Neill is looking for a back-up."
