Yoni Buyens admits he still isn’t sure if his future lies at The Valley beyond this season.

The midfielder is currently on loan in SE7 from Standard Liege, but recently told Belgian sports website Sporza he estimates there is a 75 percent chance he will be back at his parent club next season.

Buyens explained his agent has had contact with some officials from other clubs, but at the moment his best option appears to be to return to Standard in the summer.

He said in the interview: “Starting in 2016, I’m a free player. This offers perspectives.”

But when quizzed about these quotes after his penalty gave Charlton a late 2-1 win at Cardiff City on Saturday, Buyens was quick to point out his future is still up in the air. 

On the prospect of returning to Standard, he said: “I haven’t said definitely. I said that normally I’d have to go back.

“I said that there’s a 75 percent chance that I will go back because I have only a one-year contract left.

“But in football until something is signed nothing is definite.

“We will see what happens.”

Buyens added: “I don’t exclude anything.

“Everything is possible, we will see what the future will bring. 

“It’s not something I have within my head right now, I’ll just enjoy playing all the games now and we will see after the season where next season will bring me.

“But I like it very much here.”

The midfielder was also quoted in the Sporza interview as saying: “The football in England is really my thing. The pace is higher in the second class. The level in the Championship is similar to our first class."

In the Belgian interview, Buyens admitted he was concerned when Guy Luzon took over the reigns as Charlton head coach, due to there being some history between the pair at Standard Liege.

“At first I was not very enthusiastic,” he told the Belgian sports site. 

“But Luzon has immediately taken to me and told me what had happened at Standard no longer mattered.”
