Newcastle United defender Emil Krafth is delighted after penning a new contract.

The Swede has signed a new deal to 2025.

"I am very happy to extend my stay here and commit to Newcastle United for another year," the 29-year-old told the website.

"Personally, it's been a journey of ups and downs since coming to the club, but I feel at home here and I want to repay the faith and support I've received, especially during the recovery from my injury.

"It's a really exciting time for the club on and off the pitch and I'm so happy to have the opportunity to continue to be a part of it and hopefully help the team finish the season strong."
