It seems that the management of Newcastle United is not changing its direction.

Journalist David Ornstein from The Athletic reports that Newcastle plans to retain Eddie Howe as head coach.

If nothing unexpected happens, E. Howe will lead the "Magpies" at the beginning of the 2026-27 season.

The 48-year-old Englishman has been managing Newcastle since 2021 and during that time has reached the Champions League twice and fought for the League Cup.

🚨 Eddie Howe set to remain Newcastle United boss. As things stand + barring unexpected turn of events 48yo will lead #NUFC into 26/27 - retains ownership/hierarchy support & keen to continue. All parties accept this season can’t be repeated @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/KCu67KER8n
