Jonas Olsson has insisted that he is in "no rush" to sign a new contract with West Bromwich Albion.

The 29-year-old has just over 12 months remaining on his current deal and the Baggies are keen for their defender to agree to fresh terms.

However, the centre-back has insisted that his sole focus this summer will be on Sweden's Euro 2012 campaign.

"The thing in my mind is finishing off the season well with Albion and then prepare as good as possible for the Euros," said Olsson. "That's what I'm thinking about and then I'm going to have a think about my future as well. That's how I see it at the moment.

"Will I like talks before the summer? No. I want to focus on the Euros first. For me, there is no rush. It's not like my contract is expiring this year. I still have another year."

Olsson joined West Brom in 2008 from NEC Nijmegen.
