Eddie Howe leaves his role as head coach of Newcastle United after almost five years in charge, multiple outlets report. The 48-year-old took over in November 2021 and managed 231 games in the post, with his departure coming after recent developments at the club and following a pre-season defeat. The Guardian reports Newcastle lost 4-1 to Bristol City in a pre-season friendly on Wednesday, and Howe indicated there could be further changes at the club ahead of the new season. Other coverage links his tenure to a landmark achievement: Newcastle’s first major trophy in 70 years, which came when they won the Carabao Cup (League Cup) in March 2025. Sources also note Howe’s period included scrutiny after Newcastle finished 12th last season. The Press Association is cited by Yahoo Sports as understanding Howe is set to step down, following the end of his contract in the role and the culmination of his trophy-winning spell.
