Newcastle United midfielder Yohan Cabaye has revealed that he can't wait to get back onto the pitch.

The French midfielder has been forced to miss the club's last three matches because of suspension.

However, he is available for Saturday's match against Wolverhampton Wanderers and is eager to retrieve his place in the starting lineup.

"Three matches out was so long for me, and then another week without a fixture as well," Cabaye told the club's official website. "But I have worked hard to be ready and fit again. During my time out I have been training with the team as normal but also training on my own at home.

"I wanted to stay as fit as possible so have been running and using the gym at home. If the manager selects me against Wolves I will be ready."

Cabaye was banned for a red card that he received during a match at Brighton & Hove Albion.
