Lewis Hall Signs New Newcastle Contract Until 2031

Newcastle United defender Lewis Hall has signed a new contract with the club that runs until 2031.

The left-back, who has been the subject of interest from Manchester United, has agreed a two-year extension to his original deal.

Hall said it was a “really proud moment” to extend his stay as a boyhood supporter of the club.

“It’s an absolute pleasure to play for this club and to represent the supporters,” he said. “I know how much it means to them.

“To be able to bring joy to their faces, it’s a big thing for me. I obviously have a family connection with the club, which is incredibly important to us all.

“One of the main reasons I play is to make my family proud, and I know how much it means to them to watch me playing for Newcastle United.

“It’s a really good place to be. It’s really pleasing with how we’ve started the season, especially with the new gaffer [Matthias Jaissle] and coaching staff coming in, and I think we can go on to achieve really big things.”

Hall, 22, has made 106 appearances for Newcastle since joining the club from Chelsea in 2023.

Jaissle said the defender is a “very important player for us and for what we are building here.”

“His mentality is exactly what you want in a young player,” he said. “He wants to learn every day and he wants to be better in every match.

“Lewis covers ground in a way that few players can. He defends with maturity and intelligence, and his technical level means he can support the team higher up the pitch.

“What excites me most is that I believe the best is still to come from Lewis. He has a lot of room to develop, and I am looking forward to working with him as he grows with us.”
