Newcastle's Vuckic wants to extend Cardiff loan

Newcastle United midfielder Haris Vuckic is keen to remain on loan with Cardiff City for the rest of the season.

The 19-year old Slovenian has spent a month with the Bluebirds and is hoping to stick around in South Wales so he continue playing first time football which will help fast-track his development.

"I really want to play," he told the Evening Chronicle. "I know Newcastle is my first team, but if I get a chance to play for Cardiff on loan until the end of the season, that would be great.

"I've found it a little bit harder than the Premier League. In the Premier League, I had more time. Here, they tackle you straight away.

"You have to switch on and the mentality is totally different. Everybody works hard. It's harder, but I'll get used to it."
