And by doing so at the Magpies home ground, the 25-year-old surpassed his father, Patrick.

The 48-year-old played 37 times for Newcastle, scoring 13 goals.

However, only six of these were scored in the Premier League, and only one of those was scored at home.

That single goal came against West Brom on September 25 2004.

But fast forward 20 years and his son eclipsed his old man in the space of 44 minutes.

His first goal came in the sixth minute of the game, before adding his second in the 44th.

And he then netted the pick of the bunch in injury time by lashing a shot into the goal from outside the area.

The hat-trick moved him on to ten league goals for the season.

It means he has now matched his career best tally of ten league goals scored for Ajax in the Eredivisie in the 2017/18 season.

Kluivert originally joined Bournemouth from Roma in 2023.

Prior to his hat-trick against his dad’s old team, Kluivert had scored 17 goals in 58 games.

He also joined an illustrious list of stars to have scored two hat-tricks away from home in a Premier League season.

It had only happened six times before, with Ian Wright doing it first in 1993/94 and Raheem Sterling in 2019/20 the most recent before Kluivert.

The win also ensured Bournemouth maintained their stunning unbeaten run.
