Sean Longstaff scored his first Premier League goal for Newcastle United on Tuesday.
Alan Shearer has congratulated Newcastle United’s Sean Longstaff on his goal last night – but claimed that the youngster needs to work on his celebration.
The 21-year-old midfielder scored his first Premier League goal for the Magpies in the 2-0 win over Burnley on Tuesday.
Longstaff has been a revelation for Newcastle for most of the calendar year, establishing himself as a key player in Rafael Benitez’s best XI.
Like Shearer, Longstaff is a Tyneside lad born and bred, and the legendary striker has sent him a message on Twitter.
It’s a remarkable transformation for Longstaff, who was playing reserve football for United as recently as November.
But this stint in the first XI will do him and his development the world of good.
There are very few one-club players around any longer, but Newcastle fans will be hoping to have him for the entirety of his career.
