Who is Jamaal Lascelles?
Jamaal Lascelles was born November 11, 1993, and is an English professional footballer.
He plays as a centre-back and captains Premier League club Newcastle United.
Speaking in July 2023 about his decision to keep Lascelles on as skipper of the team, manager Eddie Howe told the press: “I just want to say, with Jamaal in the room, he has been an unbelievable captain for us.
“And captaincy for me, doesn’t just exist on the pitch, it has to exist off the pitch (as well).
“The two things are so intrinsically linked. So a lot of our success last season didn’t just come down to the team, it was a group of players giving everything, on and off the pitch.”
Lascelles previously played for Nottingham Forest, after kicking of his football career at their youth academy.
