United reveal commemorative crest that will be used to honour the club’s 125th anniversary season

The gold and silver design is based on the Magpies' existing crest - itself based on the Newcastle upon Tyne coat of arms - and a golden adornment has been added to mark the milestone year.

The new variation will appear on the club's classic black and white stripes during the 2017/18 season and will also feature on away and third kits throughout the club's anniversary campaign.

Newcastle United was formed in the summer of 1892 when Newcastle East End absorbed the assets of city rivals Newcastle West End, including the lease of St. James' Park.

A new name for this stronger, unified club was chosen and 'Newcastle United' was officially recognised that same year on 9th December.

The Magpies' new 2017/18 PUMA home kit will be unveiled soon.
