Newcastle boss Alan Pardew says that he fears his players could be poached by rival clubs in the summer.

Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew has admitted fears that he could lose some of his high-profile stars in the summer.

Pardew believes that the Magpies, who are currently sixth in the Premier League table, could be victim to other clubs poaching the North East side's best players.

"If I can keep the same group of players I wouldn't worry [about raising expectations]," Pardew told The Telegraph. "But will I be able to keep my best team? We are vulnerable to bigger clubs and you can't get away from that with the salaries they offer."

The likes of Demba Ba, Fabricio Coloccini and Cheik Tiote could reportedly be targeted by a number of rival clubs at the end of the season.
