Sunderland boss Regis Le Bris says rumours around his job security at the Stadium of Light are "not a problem".
Reports on Wednesday suggested the Frenchman's role at the club was under threat if the Black Cats didn't secure a European finish.
Le Bris has steered the newly promoted side to Premier League safety with games to spare and after a stellar return to the top flight, Sunderland are four points behind seventh-placed Bournemouth.
Sky Sports News understand Le Bris' job is safe regardless of where they finish in the Premier League this season.
Asked about the rumours during his press conference on Thursday, Le Bris said:
“My position is always on the table, whether it's positive or negative and it's not a problem for me.
"Here we are in a really good position and really well aligned. We wanted to be in the Premier League at the end of the season, which is done. We wanted to create consistency and a top 10 position and we are on the way.
"I hope we have the ability to do it together. Everyone can give an opinion about my job or your job. I'm not against rumours or gossip and I'm just focused on my job, it's not a problem.
"My focus is absolutely on taking Sunderland forward, this season and next. It's clear."
