West Bromwich Albion manager Roy Hodgson has hinted that he may yet sign a new contract at the Hawthorns.

The 64-year-old's future has been in doubt in recent weeks as he was reported to have stalled over fresh terms.

However, the former Liverpool boss has suggested that he wants to build a legacy at the Baggies.

"I'm relaxed about the situation. I'm ambitious to continue my career beyond 65 in the Premier League," Hodgson said. "I'm realistic about the ambitions a club like ours might have. But I want to see us looking upwards rather than looking to keep on an even keel.

"I'm not desperate to get somewhere to win trophies. I want to sit down and etch out what we need for the future to make sure the life we are enjoying today can continue.

"I don't want to stay on and fight relegation battles every year."

West Brom, who are currently 12th in the Premier League table, travel to Manchester United later today (Sunday).
