The first team squad is currently on a pre-season training camp just outside of the Irish capital and a number of players will take time out to meet fans alongside the manager at Sports Direct’s new North Earl Street megastore in the city.

Rafa will be joined in store by captain Jamaal Lascelles and teammates Ciaran Clark, Dwight Gayle, Isaac Hayden and Jonjo Shelvey on the day the Magpies’ stunning 2017/18 third kit goes on sale.

Wristbands will be given to 100 fans at the North Earl Street store on a first come, first served basis from 9am on Tuesday morning.

Fans with wristbands will then get access to an exclusive meet and greet session, which will start at 2:30pm.

All supporters can go behind the scenes of the event with the Newcastle United’s official social media channels and get involved using the hashtag #NUFCDublin.

Launched live on Facebook last week as part of PUMA’s global Step Out campaign, the Magpies’ new third kit features all-black shirts, shorts and socks with gold detailing and is adorned with this season’s iconic 125th anniversary crest.

The kit will be available to buy at www.nufcdirect.com and in store from Tuesday morning.
