Marek Cech has conceded he would be interested in a move to Newcastle, although he also claims he is in no hurry to quit Porto.The Slovakian international has established himself as a regular starter for the Portuguese giants, with his finest hour coming in the 2005/06 campaign that saw Porto scoop a domestic double.
Cech operates primarily as a left-back and was earmarked as a possible target for then Newcastle boss Sam Allardyce, prior to his recent departure.
Kevin Keegan will likely have a transfer wish-list of his own, but should it also contain Cech, the 25-year-old would be interested in a possible switch to St James' Park.
Welcome move"I would leave Porto only if I received a really good offer," he told Pravda.
"I am finding a way to make a step up in my career. I don't think Newcastle are higher than Porto in the football hierarchy as Porto have been winning trophies, play in the Champions League every year and even won it before I entered the club.
Keegan factor"However, I would welcome to taste the Premier League, which definitely is of a higher quality than the Portuguese one. Perhaps I would like to move to Newcastle."
Cech admits that Keegan's return could mean he no longer remains on Newcastle's radar.
"The problem is that they have changed manager and it is difficult to predict what the new one's ideas will be and what it would mean to me. I have built a good position at Porto in the last two and a half years and I would not like to go into uncertainty," he added.
