Newcastle winger Ryan Fraser insists he and manager Eddie Howe are on good terms.

At Bournemouth, Fraser opted against signing a short-term extension for the last nine games of the season after lockdown and the pair went their separate ways.

Speaking to the club's TV channel, Fraser has denied any ill-feeling with Howe and said: "It's very, very good.

"Everyone looked at the end of it and thought it wasn't good.

"But we have always been good.

"I don't know what that came from. It was nothing personal, we have done a lot for each other, he's done a lot for me and I've done a lot for him.

"We did go for coffee in the summer before. We respect each other better."
