The veteran keeper has recently been linked with a move to Scottish giants Celtic.
He said last night: “I have waited years for the opportunity of first-team football with Newcastle United in the Premier League so I’m not going to turn my back on it now.
“I still have a couple of years left on my contract and I am looking to play on for as long as possible.
“I’ve only played around 200 first-team games and, if I can get that up to 400, that would be fantastic.”
