Southampton manager Ronald Koeman has insisted he is determined to fulfill his contract after being linked with the vacancy at Premier League rivals Everton.
Roberto Martinez was sacked by the Merseysiders on Thursday and Dutch boss Koeman was immediately suggested as a candidate to replace the Spaniard.

Asked if his future was at Southampton, Koeman replied: "Yes. I did not expect this question. After this morning, I was surprised.
“(I can tell you) nothing, because I am the manager of Southampton."
