Kevin Keegan has confirmed that Alan Shearer is not in-line for an assistant role at Newcastle but has not ruled out the possibility of a role at the club.

  • Chelsea midfielder looking forward to London derby vs Spurs
  • Arsenal in the front row to sign Dutch striker

  • The pair had talks on Thursday but were not able to agree on a assistant role for Shearer.



    They will meet again on Monday.



    "We'll see what happens but it will not be as number two."





    "I had four hours in his company. We had an excellent meeting.



    "We talked in detail about this club - I know all his views on it now, he knows all mine.



    "It was great to see him again because I haven't really been in contact with Alan for a year, and I think we both missed that.



    If Alan comes it will be a role that's worthwhile, or he will say, 'No, not at the moment'

    "Alan doesn't come in here (to the training ground), he doesn't come in and around this place, and I would like to encourage the old players to come back.



    "I used to get them all coming back at Manchester City.



    "If Alan comes it will be a role that's worthwhile, or he will say, 'No, not at the moment' because like we both said, if it is not worthwhile, let's not do it.



    "That's where we are with it."
