'I was a bargain, no?! I mean, f***ing hell…!?': Newcastle defender Fabian Schar jokes about his £3million transfer fee after playing key role in club's recent renaissance

Newcastle centre-back Fabian Schar has jokingly admitted that even he considers his transfer fee a bargain for the magpies.

Newcastle were able to sign the defender on the cheap when they activated his £3m buyout clause after Deportivo were relegated from LaLiga in 2018.

He has since become a key member of a team that, with the help of new ownership, is on a rapid return to its former status as one of the top clubs in the country.
