Friend: Ayoze Perez wants Newcastle to match his ambitions

Ayoze Perez wants Newcastle United to match his own ambitions.

The striker has admitted he could be on the move this summer after his hat-trick in victory over Southampton.

A player source told the Evening Chronicle, "He is Spanish and he would like to go back to Spain if there were teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid or Valencia interested.

"But he did not say he wants to leave - he just wants to improve.

"Ayoze is very grateful to Newcastle but he needs to live other experiences, too. If Newcastle took the step to change and fight, fulfilling its potential, Ayoze would be happy to continue because it's a fantastic place to play."
