Joe Willock, born on 20 August 1999 (age 27), is an English centre midfielder with Newcastle United, where he wears number 28. His current market value is around £18.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Newcastle is where his career has properly settled. Across seven seasons there, Willock has made 151 league appearances and scored 16 league goals, a sizeable body of work rather than a passing spell. His sharpest league return came in 2020-21, when he scored eight times in 14 appearances.
In 2026-27, he has remained involved across competitions, with 14 appearances and three goals for Newcastle. That includes eight Premier League matches and two league goals, three FA Cup appearances, and three League Cup appearances with one goal.
Willock’s career is best read through his Newcastle spell: a regular Premier League midfielder with a decent scoring touch when used in the right areas, and a record there that carries far more weight than any passing reference elsewhere.
