Newcastle fans now left buzzing after club announce ‘brilliant news’
Newcastle have enjoyed a special 2025 so far.
Eddie Howe led the Magpies to their first major domestic trophy in⛦ 70 years with a 2-1 win over Liverpool at Wembley in March to secure the Carabao Cup, a result which prompte💖d wild scenes on Tyneside.
Newcastle are also in a fantastic position to qualify for the UEFA Champions League – currently sitting fifth in the Premier League after beating Brentford on Wednesday.

Even 🤪fifth could secure UEFA Champions League qualification – depending on how Aston Villa, Arsenal, Manchester United, Tottenhamꦆ and Chelsea fare in Europe for the rest of this season.
Off the pitch – however – t♋here has now been a club announcem🃏ent which Newcastle fans are very happy about.
Newcastle United fans celebrate as Fabian Schar signs new contract
Fabian Schar is clearly a popular man at S🍌t James’ Park – as the Toon Army on X (previously known ꦰat Twitter) are delighted to hear he has signed a new contract.
The Switzerland international was set to leave as a free agent when his deal expired in June, but has now put pen to paper on new tඣerms which run until the end of the 2025/26 campaign.
One Newcastle fan wrote “we need a chant for him ASAP (as soon as possible)” after hearingღ the news – eager to let the Swiss defender know how appreciated he is on Tyneside.
We need a chant for him ASAP

A 𝓰second Newcastle supporter then claimed that Schar is “one of our all timers” in what can only be described as effusive praise – adding that they “hope he gets a proper send off” when the time does eventually come to depart.
Another year of handsome Fab, can only assume that's his last season a꧟s well. Hope he gets a proper send off, pound for pound one of our all timers.

Fꦦu𒁃rthermore, another Newcastle fan described the club announcement as “phenomenal” – adding that the £3m signing of Schar from Deportivo in July 2018 is “one of the best” deals the Magpies have ever done.
Phenomenal !
— Alex Birdsall (@AlexBirdNUFC)
Still one of THE best 𒊎bits of business weve done !
A fourth Newcastle fan s🍌imply posted the word “stunning” – clearly a big fan of the man born in Wil.
Stunning

Elsewhere, another supporter added that it is “brilliant news” to hear the 33-year-old will stay for anothಞer season, at least.
Brilliant news

Last but not least, a sixth Newcastle fan predicted that Schar – who considered leaving – will opt to retire at the club, rather than move elsewhere after his time on Tyꦚneside comes to an end.
Hes retiring with us

The Newcastle players who are yet to have their futures decided
Schar – who was a Rafa Benitez signing – can breathe a bit easier now heading into the summer, without th🔥e uncertainty regarding his future weighing on his shoulders, although a few are yet to be afforde🎃d such a luxury.
Callu🌞m Wilson, Jamaal Lascelles, Mark Gillespie, John Ruddy and Jamal Lewis all become free agents in June as things stand – so if the situation does not change, they may be seeing out their final weeks as Newcastle players between now and the end of the seaso🐲n.
