Newcastle United could face a fight to keep Martin Dubravka with a warning that several Premier League clubs would be more than willing to take the goalkeeper. Dubravka started the first game of the season - the two-nil victory over Nottingham Forest - on the bench with new signing Nick Pope starting in goal.
Dubravka since signing for Newcastle in 2018 has made 130 appearances for the Magpies and was the first choice for keeper unless injured. Yet the arrival of Pope this summer has left question marks over Dubravka’s future.
At 33, it is unclear whether Dubravka would be willing to stay at Newcastle and fight for his place in the team or whether he will leave in search of first-team football. In an ideal world, Toon boss Eddie Howe would keep Dubravka and have two quality keepers within his ranks.
