Scrum-half Marshall is New Zealand's most-capped back
|
Justin Marshall insists he will stay at struggling Leeds even if the Tykes are relegated from the Premiership.
New Zealand's most-capped back is contracted until 2007 and says he will see out his contract either way.
"I know I'm here for two years," the 32-year-old told the Yorkshire Post. "I've settled so well and my team-mates have made me feel really welcome.
"I've not thought too much about my future because I am trying to stay positive about the future of Leeds."
Leeds are 11 points adrift of Bath at the foot of the Premiership table with four games left. The bottom side are automatically relegated to National League One.
The scrum-half added: "I have not thought about the mathematical side of it, but it's out of our hands.
"All we can do is put pressure on the teams above us by winning our matches."
Marshall, who joined Leeds from Canterbury Crusaders last summer, has been linked with a move to recently crowned Division One champions Harlequins, home of his former All Black half-back partner Andrew Mehrtens.
