Owen Looking At Transfer Options!
"I won't go into those details now, but we will be offering him what we consider an excellent contract considering the climate of what is happening around all football clubs.
"But it will be up to Michael to make that decision.
"I am pretty confident that Shola Ameobi, Steve Harper and Nicky Butt will sign, it's now just down to Michael.
"Michael is well aware of that, so is his agent. They are well aware of my feelings on that, but the ball is in his court.
"I will find out, hopefully, on Tuesday.
"I'm not confident, to be honest.
"I'm pretty confident about everybody else, but Michael is a different kettle of fish.
"He is looking at his options, I assume, but I won't go into those details until Tuesday."
