Harvey Barnes has signed a new long-term contract with Newcastle United, the club have confirmed.

Barnes joined Newcastle from Leicester City in the summer of 2023, and has since scored 30 goals in120 games for the club.

“It feels great to sign this new contract so early before the new season starts,” Barnes said. “It’s been an amazing journey so far and I’m delighted to continue that.

“When I first joined the club I quickly learned what a special place it is, but after three years here I know that even more. I love everything about it – the city, the stadium, the people – and I’m really happy extending my time here.

“I’ve had a taste of success in the last few years and enjoyed some really special moments with this team. We all want more of that and I want to be a key player that helps push the club forward.”

Newcastle head coach Eddie Howe said: “Harvey’s new contract is very well deserved and a reflection of the work he’s put in and the quality he’s shown throughout his three years at Newcastle United.

“Harvey is a player who has consistently produced special moments at vital times for the team. He’s calm in front of goal, whether that’s one-on-one or from distance, and is always a threat from wide areas.

“Harvey has vast experience at the highest level but we believe there is still more to come.”
