Sunderland striker Connor Wickham has insisted that he wants to fight for his place at the Stadium of Light.
Following manager Paolo Di Canio's public criticism of the 20-year-old, there have been suggestions that Wickham could be forced to look for a new club.
Despite fears over his future, the England Under-21 international has claimed that he is completely focused on securing a place in the Black Cats first team.
"For now, it is just back to the club, work as hard as I can and try to get into that Sunderland team," the Northern Echo quotes Wickham as saying.
Wickham moved to the club from Ipswich Town in 2011.
