Newcastle boss Eddie Howe is delighted seeing Fabian Schar sign a new deal.
The Switzerland defender has penned a new contract to 2025.
Howe said today: "The player and the person are quite similar. He's cool, calm and collected.
"He is very confident without being arrogant and he believes in himself. He is the same as a person, he is a great guy and I have built a great relationship with him.
"He is very intelligent, and I think his intelligence comes across on the pitch. He makes very good decisions; he is technically outstanding. Fabian deserves this new deal and hopefully it's a start of another good period for him."
