Manchester United captain Fernandes said: “If for some reason they don’t want to have me, I will go, but if they want me I will stay.”

The Magpies had only won one of their previous 41 away matches against the Red Devils in all competitions.

Newcastle’s long wait for a first domestic trophy since 1955 was extended by the Red Devils after their 2-0 win in last season’s Carabao Cup final.
