Following recent speculation linking Hypia Newcastle, Graeme Souness spoke briefly about the experienced central defender.

He said "I do admire Sami."

"But I think he wants a 3 year contract and thats not something we'd be willing to do. But I do like him."

The rumour has risen due to the managers well known desire to add another central defender to his squad, following the summer sales of Andy O'Brien and Aaron Hughes.

Liverpool have offered Hypia a new contract, but it appears that he is waiting to see if another more long term offer comes his way.
