“Staying is not dependent on promotion,” he told 90 Minuten.
“I’ve been active in the Championship for nine years. We’ll see how the season goes. I can’t say yet what will happen next.
“I’ve played in every game so far, hopefully this trend continues. At the end of the season, it will be clear whether I stay at Blackburn or not. Of course, I hope to stay.
"Blackburn is a big, traditional club that has already won the Premier League. I’ve always been lucky enough to play for big clubs. I don’t see a big difference to Blackburn.
“I have a one-year contract. I really like it here. Of course, it depends on the club whether they want to extend my contract.”
