Owen set to leave Newcastle

December 19, 2008

Newcastle United supremo Joe Kinnear has moved quickly to dilute rumours that Michael Owen is set to be sold in the January transfer window. The former Wimbledon and Nottingham Forest Manager has stated that even if the Scouser does not sign a new contract, he will not be sold no matter what the proposed offers may be.

 

Kinnear has repeatedly stated that he is not confident of keeping Owen past the summer although he pledges to do all he can to make sure that his prized asset remains at St James’ Park.

 

Owen himself has remained relatively quiet about the whole situation and has not indicated whether or not he would like to stay at the club. Previous rumours that he may be returning to Anfield have been shot down however with Raphael Benitez categorically stating that Liverpool are not interested in the England striker.

 

There is no doubt that Owen can still cut it in the Premier League, however he needs to stay injury free and it is this which may put off some of the bigger clubs.

 

Many Newcastle fans are disappointed in the fact that Owen probably will leave the Toon, however they are more worried that they will receive nothing for him if the striker does not depart until the summer when he is out of contact.
