Dan Burn has committed his future to Newcastle United, signing a contract extension that will keep him at the club until 2027. The 33-year-old has enjoyed a remarkable 2024/25 season, playing a vital role as the Magpies lifted their first major domestic trophy in 70 years.
Burn, who opened the scoring and earned Player of the Match in the Carabao Cup final win over Liverpool, has been a key figure under Eddie Howe, making 45 appearances across all competitions and missing just one Premier League match this term. His outstanding form earned him a senior England call-up, with new boss Thomas Tuchel handing Burn his international debut in a World Cup qualifier against Albania in March.
“I still feel like I’m getting better and I don’t feel that I’ve hit the top of the hill yet. It’s a dream come true to be playing for this club, and I’m delighted that I get to keep doing it.” — Dan Burn
