Following promotion Hayden secured a place in the Newcastle team under the management of Rafael Benítez as a defensive midfielder. Following the departure of Benitez in 2019, Steve Bruce continued to play Hayden as a midfielder and at right back. Hayden scored the winning goal in a 2020 mid-season 1–0 win against Chelsea with a header in stoppage time.[13]

After suffering a long-term injury in December 2021, Hayden was not named in the Newcastle United 25-man Premier League squad for the second half of the 2021–22 season.[14][15]

On 14 March 2022, Hayden was fined £19,000 by The Football Association after complaining on Twitter about referee David Coote's performance following Newcastle's 1–0 defeat at Chelsea.[16]

Hayden declared his ambition to play for England at senior level in September 2019,[25] but changed track in March 2021, when he personally contacted the Jamaican Football Federation to express his interest in playing for the Jamaica team.[26] This came at a time when the Jamaican Football Federation announced its intention to target call-ups for a number of English players with Jamaican heritage, in order to improve the national team's chances of qualifying for the 2022 World Cup.[26]
