The 29-year-old goalkeeper has been very impressive for the Magpies since joining them on loan in January and Benitez wants him to stay beyond this season.
Dubravka had a debut to remember against Manchester United. The 29-year-old produced one of the finest goalkeeping displays the Premier League has seen in the recent years.
As per the reports, signing Dubravka is now a transfer priority for the Spanish manager. Also, the report adds that Dubravka is keen on playing for Newcastle next season and therefore the move should be finalised without any complications.
