Brighton midfielder Alan Navarro has revealed that the club is not offering him a new contract for the time being.

"It's another summer of uncertainty. Hate this time of year," Navarro posted on his Twitter page., external

Navarro, who began his career with Liverpool, and joined the Seagulls from MK Dons in 2009, is free to try and find another club, but could opt once again to wait and see whether Poyet will change his mind.

The Brighton manager, meanwhile, is planning discussions with third-choice goalkeeper David Gonzalez, who played two games at the end of the campaign.

Speaking after Saturday's 0-0 draw at Barnsley, Poyet told BBC Sussex: "It's one of the decisions and we'll have a talk with David.
