Viduka eyes Newcastle stay

Mark Viduka has revealed that he has no intention of leaving Newcastle at the end of the season. The Australian striker has endured a difficult time at St. James' Park, but has insisted his future could still be at the Toon. Viduka has been linked with a move back to his homeland in Australia.

"I would love to spend some more time at this club," Viduka said.

"That's my personal thing. I would love to have good times here and with Alan Shearer as a boss, this club has a lot of potential.

"I have been here for two years and we've had five managers. I would say to whoever is in charge, keep Alan for as long as he needs.

"The fans love him, he is Newcastle through and through, he is a big personality, people respect him and the players respect him."
