Martins staying at Newcastle for now

19 November 2007 - 21:22

Obafemi Martins has reiterated his commitment to Sam Allardyce's side and will be staying at the club next season. The Newcastle and Nigerian hitman has promised to score goals whilst Michael Owen is out injured.

  • Arsenal handed injury boost on defender ahead of Bournemouth clash
  • Chelsea planning shock move for Man City winger?

  • Arsenal and Man Utd have monitored Obafemi Martins' situation closely, and the 23-year-old Nigerian international, who was linked with a move during the summer, told the Magpies' official website: "I feel I have been accepted here, I love the fans and I think they love me. I want to stay here for a few years, I think.



    "The only thing I can do is keep scoring for them (the fans) because it is so important to them.



    "Getting goals and getting three points means a lot to the people here and I have to work hard to help do that."
