Gus Poyet has urged Connor Wickham to make a decision on his future with Sunderland.

The striker, who is heading into the final year of his current deal, has been offered a new contract at the club, but is yet to put pen to paper.

"For me, Connor's situation is clear. He needs to sign a new contract or we let him go, there is nothing in between," The Guardian quotes the Sunderland manager as saying.

Wickham joined the club from Ipswich Town in 2011, and has reportedly attracted interest from Leicester City and Southampton.
