Newcastle United boss Alan Pardew isn't ready to let go Haris Vuckic.

Pardew will delay sanctioning a loan move for Vuckic to Bradford City.

He told the Evening Chronicle: "Haris isn't a player we can move.

"Maybe there is an opportunity where Haris can move. But this week, no."

Vuckic is set to be in the squad for next week's League Cup tie at Morecambe.
