Tommy Oar says there's no substance to rumours he will leave Brisbane Roar during the January transfer window and expects to see out the remainder of his contract with the A-League club. Speculation has lingered for months that the winger would leave for either China or the Middle East, but no concrete offers have been forthcoming. The 25-year-old is contracted to the Roar for another year and will become a marquee player next season as part of his back-ended deal. Another foray into Europe is by no means out of the question - but until something comes up, the fringe Socceroo is happy to stay put in his home state. "I guess there's been a lot of rumours around," Oar said. "For me, I haven't heard anything about any substance to those rumours. "My focus has been purely on here and performing well this season. "There's no real reason I can see that anything would change for me in the six months to a year. "I really want to win something with the club this year and I think we have the quality to do that, so beyond that, I'm not looking any further." Oar has scored once and provided four assists in 16 A-League appearances for Brisbane this season as he attempts to build form ahead of Australia's crucial World Cup qualifier against Iraq in March.
