England striker Michael Owen is due a new deal, according to his Newcastle boss Kevin Keegan. The Toon's boss wants to sit down with Owen and discuss a new contract as soon as possible. Owen is believed to be keen to extend his stay at Newcastle.
Keegan said: "I've already started to say we should be talking to Michael now, not next week.
"Michael's not going to stop scoring, he's not going to stop catching the eye and Michael is going to be wanted by other clubs. But at the moment he's here.
"He enjoys playing at this club. A lot of the stuff that's been written may suggest otherwise, but nothing Michael has said has been anything other than positive.
"I've never asked Michael if he wants to stay, so I can't answer that, but I hope the answer is yes. If not, we've another year of him and that's the very least we'll get."
