Leon Best insists he sees his future at Newcastle United.

The striker hopes to be back from injury in the coming weeks.

"Before I moved to this club I did have opportunities to go to other places, but I thought if I came here and did well I'd get the respect I want. It's a massive club and I have done well when I've come in," he told The Journal.

"I've enjoyed playing with Demba and look forward to playing with him even more as well as Papiss and Hatem (Ben Arfa). But again, it's good options for the manager. He's got players on the bench that have proved they can do it as well as players on the pitch who are doing it."
