The Peruvian told the Evening Chronicle: “Obviously I would love a new contract but nobody’s talking about it at the moment.
“All I am doing is concentrating on playing as many games as I can, and doing my best for the team.
“I’m enjoying playing at right-back, and I’m enjoying playing for the fans here, who are the best.
“I’m very happy at St James’ Park, but for the moment it is best to concentrate on my football.”
