Roma manager Jose Mourinho said he was uncertain about his future following their Europa League final defeat, where he also criticised referee Anthony Taylor.
The defeat meant Roma failed to qualify for next season's Champions League and prompted questions about whether the 60-year-old would remain in the Italian capital, having been linked with Paris St Germain.
PSG have shown tentative early interest in Mourinho becoming their next manager. The French champions will assess their options at the end of the season, with current head coach Christophe Galtier out of contract in 2024.
"I have to fight for these lads and therefore not say objectively that I will remain," Mourinho told Sky Sports Italia.
"I spoke to the club in December when I had that approach from the Portuguese national team.
"I have not had any contact with anyone else since then. I have a year left on my contract and this is the situation."
It was Mourinho's first defeat in a European final, but he said he was proud of his team's performance and acknowledged that the season had taken its toll.
"We're physically exhausted, mentally drained, feeling dead because we believe it's an unjust defeat with numerous debatable incidents.
"We are dead tired, but proud. I always say you can lose a football match, but never your dignity or professionalism...
"I lost this one, but I return home prouder than ever this time. The lads gave absolutely everything this season."
Mourinho also criticised referee Taylor in a game where he was booked along with 13 outfield and various members of both coaching staffs - he added that the Englishman showed too many yellow cards.
"It was an intense, vibrant game with a referee who seemed Spanish. It was yellow, yellow, yellow all the time," he said.
Mourinho had never lost a European final before Wednesday, having last year led Roma to the inaugural Europa Conference League title, becoming the first coach to win all the European trophies.
Losing was clearly a painful experience for the Portuguese who handed his runners-up medal to a fan in the stand after the presentation.
"That's what I did, I don't want silver medals. I don't keep silver medals, so I gave it away," he told Movistar.
Mourinho: We lost a game but not dignity
Mourinho told ITV Italy after the game: "I've won five finals and I lost this one, but I'm coming back home proud again. The boys gave everything.
"We felt pressure against a team that has more talent than us. We lost a game but not dignity.
"I've never gone home prouder than today, even when I won. We had also worked hard on penalties but... we missed two - but all together, not only the penalty takers."
Mourinho said while his players are sad, his side deserve to go home with their heads held high.
"We are all attached to the shirt, to our nature. We take things seriously and humbly, we work a lot," Mourinho said.
"Everyone reacts in a different way: one cries, the other doesn't.
"Congratulations to Sevilla, but also congratulations to my players. The boys must go home peacefully, with pride for having done what they have done. These are my boys from Budapest."
Lamela: Feeling is unbelievable
Meanwhile, Sevilla forward Erik Lamela reflected on an extremely tough game as Sevilla won their seventh Europa League title.
"This is amazing, I can't ask for more, this feeling is unbelievable," he told BT Sport.
"Really tough game, not an easy game to play, we were not feeling in our best way because they defended well and it was difficult to find the spaces and create situations but this team fought it out and tonight we're going to enjoy it."
