Keane: No rush for new contract

Roy Keane will put discussions over his long-term future to the back of his mind as he seeks the extra “steel” required to move Sunderland up the Barclays Premier League table.

Keane expressed satisfaction with his side’s gutsy 1-1 draw at Wigan on Saturday then said talk of signing a contract extension at the Stadium of Light was the last thing on his mind.
