Fabian Schar Sign New Newcastle Contract
Defender, Fabian Schar has signed a new contract with Premier League side, Newcastle United until the end of the 2024-25 season.
The Switzerland international has made a total of 169 appearances for the Magpies since arriving from Spanish side Deportivo La Coruna in the summer of 2018.
He is a key part of manager Eddie Howe’s defense and scored a stunning goal against Paris St-Germain in the 4-0 Champions League win earlier this season.
“I’ve said it a lot of times, but I feel really at home here,” the 32-year-old told the club’s official website.
“I feel so comfortable living in Newcastle. I love the city and I love playing for the club and the incredible fans. I can’t say enough how much I love them, and how much their support means to me.
“Playing for this team where I feel so comfortable, with all my team-mates and with the coaching staff, feels really like a family for me, so I’m grateful to stay here a bit longer and hopefully to have some more exciting times.“
Howe added: “Fabian has been excellent for us. Since I’ve come to the football club, he’s been a model of consistency and a big part of our success.
“He’s defended very well but he’s hugely talented with the ball as well. We’re delighted he’s extended his time here.”
