Darnell Fisher is looking for St Johnstone to secure their top six spot so he can enjoy the rest of the season.
The 21-year-old right-back, on loan from Celtic until the summer, scored his first senior goal in the 3-0 Premiership win over Hearts at Tynecastle before the international break.
The victory kept Saints in fourth place and with two games remaining – at home to bottom side Dundee United on Saturday and away to second-bottom Kilmarnock in the last game before the split – Tommy Wright’s side are seven points ahead of ninth-placed Inverness who have a game in hand.
While the Perth club should claim their fifth successive top-six spot, Fisher wants it confirmed so he can savour the season finale.
The Englishman said: “We want to finish the season well, we don’t want to be dragged down.
“We want to be comfortable and have a good time, enjoy ourselves playing instead of looking over our shoulder.
“You never know, anything can happen in football.
“You talk about it when it is sorted but it’s not at the moment so we will keep trying to get results until it is official.
“Even after that we still want to finish the season well.
“We are fourth right now so hopefully we can secure it and we won’t rule third out until it is mathematically impossible. We will keep trying.
“But they are going to be really tough games.
“Kilmarnock have a new manager and Dundee United are obviously fighting for their survival, so that will be a really hard game.
“But we are in good form so hopefully we can get a good result.”
Fisher, who started his youth career with Farnborough before joining Celtic in 2011, described his season as “stop-start” but is happy to be featuring for Saints at the moment although he is unclear as to what will happen next season.
He said: “I have been in the team for a few games now, and I feel good going into each game.
“I have a year left (at Celtic) and we will see what happens in pre-season, see what they want. My agent and I will speak to them.
“I just want to play football. So who knows? I have not spoken at anyone at Celtic.
“I am just playing for St Johnstone, trying to do my best and not really looking at anything else.”
