Newcastle rushing to renew contracts of defensive pair

The Magpies are ready to speak with the representatives of Fabian Schar and Emil Krafth.

Per The Mail, both players can expect a pay rise and an extension on their contracts.

Another who is hoping to agree a new deal is Sean Longstaff, but only on the right terms.

For now, Newcastle will activate a club extension on his deal to take him to the summer of 2026.

They can activate that clause in December, but will hope to negotiate a longer deal with Longstaff before the season ends.
