Newcastle United extends contract of winger Harvey Barnes after standout season

Newcastle United has extended the contract of England international winger Harvey Barnes, securing him on a long-term deal with the club.

Barnes, 28, enjoyed the best goal-scoring season of his career last year, netting 16 goals in 57 appearances across all competitions. His form earned him a recall to the England national team in March, ending a nearly six-year absence.

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe said the contract extension reflects Barnes' contributions and quality over his three years with the team, highlighting his ability to decide matches and create danger in attack.
