Tony Cascarino praises West Bromwich Albion-owned Newcastle United striker Salomon Rondon and his manager Rafael Benitez.
Benitez is out of contract at Newcastle at the end of the season, and no new deal is in place for the former Liverpool boss to carry on at the Magpies beyond the summer of 2019.
Former Chelsea striker Cascarino has praised the Spaniard for being loyal to Newcastle, and he has suggested that he does not think that Benitez will leave the Magpies and will sign a new contract.
Cascarino has also praised Salomon Rondon, who joined Newcastle on a season-long loan deal West Bromwich Albion in the summer of 2018.
The 29-year-old Venezuela international striker has made 22 starts and two substitute appearances in the Premier League for the Magpies so far this season, scoring eight goals and providing five goals in the process, according to WhoScored.
Newcastle are 13th in the Premier League table at the moment with 34 points from 30 matches, six points above the relegation zone.
Cascarino about Benitez on the Weekend Sports Breakfast show on talkSPORT this past Sunday morning (7:15am, March 10, 2019): “I get the sense that Rafael is a very loyal man, I do feel that, because he could have walked out of Newcastle on two or three occasions.
“He might say certain things to the media. I think deep down there is a very humble guy in there that actually loves being the Newcastle manager.”
Cascarino about Rondon on the Weekend Sports Breakfast show on talkSPORT this past Sunday morning (7:14am, March 10, 2019): “Rondon has been outstanding. I talked about him at the start of the season when they took him from West Brom on loan. He has led that line brilliantly for them.”
