Distin insists no contract issue

Stories circulated earlier this week claiming the French defender had been offered a one-year extension to his current deal, but that he was hoping to be handed an extra year as reward for his consistent form.

But the 34-year-old, whose current Blues deal expires at the end of this season, says he has made no such demands, and that he is happy to commit his future to the club.

Disitn said: ?I read today in the newspaper that I was asking for a two-year contract. I am not sure where that has come from but it is completely untrue, and I would like to rectify that.

?I am happy with one-year. If Everton want to give me two then that is all good, but I am really happy with one.?
