Boudewijn Zenden says he could be convinced by Sunderland to change his mind over a potential departure from the club.
The veteran former Holland midfielder has stated his intention to leave the Stadium of Light this summer after growing frustrated warming the bench.
Zenden marked what was, as it stands, his final appearance for the Black Cats with a goal in Sunday's 3-0 victory over West Ham.
But the 34-year-old, a former Chelsea, Liverpool and Barcelona player, says nothing is yet set in stone over his future.
He said: "Football is football. What happens today could be different tomorrow.
"But, as it stands, this was my last game for Sunderland."
Stay
Sunderland manager Steve Bruce and chairman Niall Quinn are reportedly keen to keep Zenden, who arrived on Wearside from Marseille in 2009.
The Dutchman, who confirmed there had been interest in him from other clubs, added: "That's easy to say but it's one thing saying something and another giving me the minutes that do satisfy me to sign for another year.
"I do enjoy helping out the boys and I can be influential in the dressing room.
"But I think I can be influential in the dressing room as well as on the pitch while I'm playing.
"I wasn't happy enough, I didn't get enough satisfaction from that situation.
"That's why I decided to look further."
Now that is a bit of good news over to you Brucie, cracking player on a free for another year cant be bad, hope they do the buiss
