Schär speaks to UNITED ahead of Foxes clash

The Switzerland international, who recently returned from injury to regain his place in the Magpies’ backline, sat down for an in-depth chat ahead of Wednesday’s clash with the Foxes at St. James’ Park.

The defender's goal against Everton on Saturday was his sixth of 2019 and he looks back on the year just ended as well as talking about his hopes with club and country for 2020.

As well as the extensive interview with Schär, there is also an exclusive chat with former Greece international George Georgiadis, who reflects on the single season he spent with United in 1998/99.

Skipper Jamaal Lascelles – who is working towards a return to full fitness – pens his regular column, as does head coach Steve Bruce.

And frontman Andy Carroll makes his debut in one of UNITED’s popular features as he tackles some bizarre questions posed by the Toon Tombola.

Young defender Kell Watts, who signed a new contract with the club earlier this season, is profiled in High Hopes, while club historian Paul Joannou takes a look back at some of the Magpies’ most memorable New Year’s Day outings from years gone by.
