Sydney FC captain Alex Brosque has told the club to make his contract negotiations the lowest priority for next season, suggesting he is happy to be the final player to re-sign with the Sky Blues regardless of how much money is left in the salary cap.

Brosque has privately committed himself to the club for next season and told Sydney FC staff he has no intention of leaving, despite being off contract in May and enjoying arguably the best season of his 17-year career.

When Graham Arnold recently approached Brosque to urge him to re-sign for another year, the former Australian international told his coach not to worry and focus on retaining other big-name players coming off contract such as Milos Ninkovic, Bernie Ibini (on loan from Brugge), Dutch defender Jordy Buijs and marquees Filip Holosko and Bobo.

For the 33-year-old Brosque, one final pay day is not what he's after in what could be one of his last years as a professional footballer. Rather, he wants what could be one last hurrah with a team widely regarded as the best ever assembled at Moore Park.
