Sunderland head coach Dick Advocaat has not decided if he will take up the offer of a new contract.
Dick Advocaat has confirmed that Sunderland has offered him the chance to stay on as head coach and will let his decision be known next Thursday.
The vastly experienced former Netherlands coach was appointed by the Wearside club in March following Gus Poyet's departure.
Advocaat was charged with the task of ensuring Sunderland remain in the Premier League and a goalless draw at Arsenal on Wednesday ensured it was mission accomplished.
The 67-year-old was only contracted until the end of the season, but has been given the chance to remain at the Stadium of Light and will mull over his decision in the coming days.
