'My first option', Fabian Schar drops hint on Newcastle United future and talks about team pact after Spurs

Fabian Schar has signalled that he wants to be part of Eddie Howe's revolution at Newcastle United in the next few years. Schar has been in negotiations with the Magpies over a contract extension as he looks to sign one of the most important deals of his career.

Schar's German-based agency Sport 360 have excellent links in the Bundesliga with clients already at clubs like Frankfurt, Wolfsburg and Hertha Berlin. But Schar says Newcastle are his first choice as he considers his next step.
