Newcastle’s lone World Cup star is due back at the club’s Benton base after an extended break following his exploits with Argentina in South Africa.

The rumour during the World Cup was that Lazio were interested in the winger (although he played at Left-Back during the competition) but Chris Hughton admits there have been no offers.

Gutierrez: “I will stay at Newcastle, I feel very comfortable there.

“I have a three-year contract and we have fantastic motivation there now, having successfully been promoted back to the Premier League.

“There are other big leagues around Europe, but I am staying in England.”
