Newcastle United hero Pavel Srnicek admits he'd like to one day return to the club.

But he admits he can't see it happening under the current board.

"I would love to come back to England one day - especially Newcastle," Srnicek told the Evening Chronicle.

"It's a shame to see a club like this where it is at the moment. I don't think I would ever come back to Newcastle under this regime or under the people who run the club now.

"I have nothing against them, but I don't know them and they don't know me.

"I'm not sure if they are even interested in ex-players or whether we have a feeling for the club or not. That's a different story, I suppose.

"But if things changed at the club I would love to come back."
