Harvey Barnes, born on 9 December 1997 (age 28), is an English left winger with Newcastle United, where he wears the number 11. His market value is around £30m, according to Transfermarkt.
Barnes made his name at Leicester City, with his early senior loan spells giving him the minutes and rough edges that young wide players tend to need. He developed into a direct, goal-minded winger rather than a touchline ornament, and Leicester got the benefit of that once he settled into their first team.
His best league return came in 2022-23, when he scored 13 goals in 34 appearances for Leicester. That was the season which underlined his main value: carrying a threat from the left and turning promising positions into something measurable.
He is now at Newcastle United, where his 2026-27 season has brought 15 appearances and seven goals across all competitions. That includes nine Premier League appearances with two goals, three FA Cup appearances with three goals, and three League Cup appearances with two goals.
Barnes’ career has been built steadily rather than dramatically: early development away from the spotlight, a productive Leicester spell, and a move on to Newcastle as an established Premier League winger.
