Newcastle United stopper Martin Dubravka has been in questionable form so far this season.
Martin Dubravka has insisted in the Chronicle that he is happy at Newcastle United.
Dubravka was linked with a move away from Newcastle over the summer, but nothing materialised and he has stuck around at St. James’ Park.
Newcastle are now eager to get the Slovakian tied down to a new contract, as they look to secure his future once and for all.
And Dubravka has hinted that he is now close to signing a new deal with the Magpies.
“I still have a contract anyway (until 2022),” he said.
“I am happy here.
“The only thing I can say is we are in contact and that we can sort it out as soon as possible.
“I am focused on my job anyway and so are the team.
“I just want to do my job.”
Dubravka’s form at Newcastle has actually been questionable this season, as he has been uncharacteristically error prone.
The usually commanding stopper was partly at fault for the second goal which Newcastle conceded against Liverpool, as they slipped to a 3-1 defeat at Anfield.
Dubravka sticking around should still be seen as good news for Newcastle though.
The shot stopper remains a excellent goalkeeper at Premier League level, and with his future sorted out it may help him get back to his very best.
