Newcastle United goalkeeper Martin Dubravka is set to stay at the club this winter despite links to Saudi Arabian side Al-Shabab.
This is reported by the Daily Mail who state that the 36-year-old will stay beyond January after positive talks with the club as he covers for the injured Nick Pope who has been out since early December with a knee injury.

The England stopper is in line to return to the squad against Southampton on Saturday meaning Dubravka’s spell in the side may be over, but after conversations with the club and most likely manager Eddie Howe, he is not going anywhere this January.
The Slovakia international has started the last 10 matches under Howe and is said to have been offered a new and improved contract.
Newcastle reportedly decided that the transfer made little football or business sense especially due to his fantastic form.
