Southend strike Freddy Eastwood has not ruled out staying at Roots Hall next season to help fire the Shrimpers back to the Championship.

Eastwood, who has been called up to the Wales squad, is expected to be the subject of interest from Premiership and Championship clubs over the summer after hitting 65 goals in three prolific seasons for the Essex side.

But an anticipated move did not materialise in January and Eastwood admits he could be kicking off the new season in League One if the bigger clubs fail to make any firm bids again.

"If I don't get a move in the summer I've still got a contract at Southend and I'll still be a Southend player," he told the club's official website.
