Juninho claims Rivaldo would like Newcastle should he follow up Bobby Robson's interest and leave Barcelona.

Robson is keen to lure the Brazilian away from the Nou Camp to St James' Park.

Brazilian team-mate Juninho claims Rivaldo would be happy playing in the Premiership with Newcastle.

"I don't really know anything about it," said Juninho following Brazil's 5-2 World Cup win over Costa Rica.

"But the Newcastle fans are great. If he went, he would like it at Newcastle and the fans would like him."
