Newcastle United have unveiled a new club crest for the first time since 1988, to be worn from the 2027-28 season.
Newcastle United have unveiled a new club crest, marking the first change to the badge in 38 years since 1988. The club has spent two years developing the new design, which they describe as an evolution rather than a revolution of the existing crest.
Players will first wear the new badge in a match against Crystal Palace in May, before it features on kits from the 2027-28 season onwards. ChronicleLive reports that Newcastle believe the refined crest puts them in conversation with clubs like Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain in terms of modern badge design.
The club unveiled the new crest on Thursday morning. The Shields Gazette reports that supporters have had varied reactions to the change.
