Newcastle United striker Michael Owen has rubbished claims he
will hang up his boots at the end of the season.
"Any suggestion or unfounded speculation that Michael Owen has
any intention of quitting football is totally untrue and wrong,"
read a statement from Wasserman Media Group.
"Michael remains as committed to his football career as he ever
has been and is deeply and professionally offended that anyone
should suggest otherwise."
It continued: "Michael Owen has instructed lawyers this evening
and will take action against any publication which he feels
inaccurately or unfairly suggested he is quitting football and is
damaging to his professional reputation."
