Alan Shearer has been linked to a move away from St. James' Park recently, with his contract up this summer. However, a move away is not on the skippers agenda as he is ready to sign a new Toon deal.

It was rumoured that Spurs and Liverpool were going to try and tempt Shearer to leave St. James' at the end of the season. But the 33-year-old has said:

"I know nothing about that - all I want to do is extend my current Newcastle contract, which expires this season."
