Transfer Rumours

Newcastle target Juanito wants new contract
Real Betis defender Juanito is keen on signing a new contract with the Primera Divison club.

The 32-year-old’s current contract is set to expire at the end of the season and the Spain international has been linked with a move to Premier League side Newcastle United.

But Juanito is now seeking a new deal with Betis that will keep him at the club for the rest of his career.

Juanito said in the Daily Star: “It has to be the contract of my life because I’m in great form. I want to be paid what I deserve.

“My first option will always be Betis. I want to retire here after the three or four years I have left in football.

“If it doesn’t happen I will find another place.”
