Newcastle boss Kinnear makes Owen contract talks priority

After extending his Newcastle United stay until the summer, Joe Kinnear says a priority is to secure striker Michael Owen to a new contract.

"We have got to sit down with Michael now and actually find out how he feels about the situation," said Kinnear. "At the moment, he is being very receptive. I believe he likes it here, to be honest.

"That's my personal opinion, but until I actually hear it from Michael, I don't know.

"But I sincerely hope I am in a position to keep him, for sure, because I wouldn't want to lose him."
