Jack Colback said earlier this season ‘Obviously the aim is to get Forest promoted. Then we will see. If the manager (Rafa Benitez) comes calling and wants to take me back there, we will cross that bridge when we come to it.’
When the player went on loan last summer, it was widely reported that this season was also the last of his Newcastle contract, the midfielder getting a ridiculously long five year deal back in 2014 when a ‘bargain’ free transfer from Sunderland.
However, now The Chronicle are saying that their information is that Jack Colback actually has a six year contract with Newcastle, meaning he won’t be out of contract this summer.
It means it could be impossibleto sell Colback this summer.
No Championship club able to commit themselves to paying his £40,000 per week wages.
