Diouf wants clarification
El-Hadji Diouf will demand talks with new boss Ricky Sbragia to see whether he has a future at the club.
The Senegal striker has barely featured since Roy Keane quit the club and is worried he is not part of Sbragia's plans at the Stadium of Light.
He said: "I need a proper chat with Ricky as I don't know how important he thinks I am. The bottom line is I want to play. We'll see what happens."
