Harvey Barnes signs new long-term Newcastle contract: ‘I’m delighted to continue’

England international Harvey Barnes has signed a new long-term contract at Newcastle United.

The 28-year-old winger’s previous terms had been due to expire in 2028 but the Tyneside club confirmed on Monday he has extended his stay at St James’ Park.

Barnes joined Newcastle from Leicester City in 2023 and has grown into a crucial member of Eddie Howe’s starting line-up. Last season he made 57 appearances, playing in all but one of their Premier League fixtures, registering 16 goals and six assists.

His performances earned him a second England call-up in March, six years after his first, and subsequently his second cap against Uruguay.

“It feels great to sign this new contract so early before the new season starts,” he said in a release on Newcastle’s website. “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.”

Barnes has made 120 Newcastle appearances, scoring 30 and providing 14 assists, and was part of the Carabao Cup-winning side in 2025.
