# Newcastle United forward to remain at the club

Ayoze Perez has recently been linked with a move away from The Magpies this summer.

Perez told *Radio Marca Tenerife*:

> *To this day I have no plans to leave England.*

> *I am very comfortable at Newcastle and in the Premier League. It is very professional football”*, the attacker continued.

> *I am a little English now.*

Perez admits that England is his home away from home. He signed off his season with his first Premier League brace against Chelsea. Perez will look to continue his development at Newcastle United.

> *This season I ended with the victory against Chelsea on the last day.*
