Tommy Oar staying put at Brisbane Roar

Jan 24, 2017 - 6:23 AM Tommy Oar says there's no substance to rumours he will leave Brisbane Roar during the January transfer window and expects to see out the remainder of his contract with the A-League club.

Speculation has lingered for months that the winger would leave for either China or the Middle East, but no concrete offers have been forthcoming.

The 25-year-old is contracted to the Roar for another year and will become a marquee player next season as part of his back-ended deal.

Another foray into Europe is by no means out of the question - but until something comes up, the fringe Socceroo is happy to stay put in his home state.

"I guess there's been a lot of rumours around," Oar said.

"For me, I haven't heard anything about any substance to those rumours.

"My focus has been purely on here and performing well this season.

"There's no real reason I can see that anything would change for me in the six months to a year.

"I really want to win something with the club this year and I think we have the quality to do that, so beyond that, I'm not looking any further."

Oar has scored once and provided four assists in 16 A-League appearances for Brisbane this season as he attempts to build form ahead of Australia's crucial World Cup qualifier against Iraq in March.
