My future is irrelevant," he said - viathe Mirror."I am focused on the games and nothing else. You have to put contracts to one side and think only about winning trophies.This can still be a great season and I will do everything to play my part.�

But Clichy has refused to entertain thoughts of progression until the job is done, claiming that Monaco are very much still in with a chance at theStade Louis II.
We know it's not finished until it's finished," he added."Barcelona's result shows that anything is possible.�
