Newcastle United loanee Martin Dubravka has told the Slovakian media he hopes to remain at the Premier League club, but it depends on Rafael Benitez remaining.
The Slovakia international joined Newcastle United on loan until the end of the season from Sparta Prague.
Sport.sk have reported on comments Dubravka made this week on his future at Newcastle United: “My loan lasts until May 31st, 2018. By then everything should be sorted. Everything should be based on whether or not the coach Rafael Benitez will stay or go.
“All possible transfers will begin after this at the club. This week will show whether Rafael Benitez will remain. And then we’ll see how my situation develops.”
“The people from the club told me they were happy and would like me to stay. As I said, everything depends on Rafael Benitez. I firmly believe my chance is high. Over the next few days, it will definitely be sorted.”
Dubravka was one of Newcastle United’s standout players during the second half of last season which helped the Magpies remain in the Premier League.
In recent days the goalkeeper has also spoken to the English press to say he would be happy to remain at the club, but it seems he’s waiting on Benitez’s Newcastle United future.
The St James’ Park faithful will be hoping they can complete a permanent deal for the 29 year old and it all seems promising.
