The 26-year-old Northern Ireland international has committed his future to the Magpies until 2029, marking a significant step in the club’s long-term plans.
Lewis, who joined Newcastle from Norwich City in 2020, has shown resilience and determination through injury setbacks and strong competition for places. His pace, defensive awareness, and ability to support the attack have made him a valuable asset on the left flank.

Club officials see Lewis as a key figure in their defensive unit as they continue to build a competitive squad for European qualification. Manager Eddie Howe praised Lewis’ attitude and professionalism, saying he “deserves this opportunity to play a bigger role going forward.”
Lewis expressed his excitement about the new deal, stating, “I’m proud to continue my journey with this great club. I’m ready to give everything for the badge and help Newcastle reach new heights.”
This extension signals Newcastle’s intent to invest in young, talented players for a successfu
