Mitrovic: Forget Madrid and Barca, I want to become a Newcastle legend
Relegation from the Premier League could see a number of Newcastle United's key players leave for top-flight football.
Despite Newcastle United's relegation from the Premier League, striker Aleksandar Mitrovic has no intention of leaving as he aims to become a club legend.
Newcastle were consigned to Championship football for the second time since 2009 after finishing two points adrift of arch-rivals Sunderland in 18th position.
Mitrovic's future, along with a number of team-mates, has been thrown up in the air following relegation, but the 21-year-old Serbia international insists he is happy at St James' Park.
"At the moment I am living my dream in Newcastle," he told Blic Sport.
"I hope to be at the club for many years and become a legend.
"Of course many children are dreaming to play for Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United.
"I always just wanted to wear the jersey of Partizan, Newcastle and Serbia."
