Eddie Howe to leave the Newcastle manager role in 2026
Hired shortly after the club's takeover by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, few anticipated the heights that Newcastle would reach under Eddie Howe.
Howe guided the Magpies to UEFA Champions League football in his first full term at the club with a fourth placed finish in the Premier League, their highest position since the 2002/03 season under the stewardship of Sir Bobby Robson, where they finished third.
Newcastle struggled to cope with the hectic fixture schedule in the 2023/24 campaign and dropped to seventh in England's top flight, but it was still a season that surpassed years of mediocrity under former owner Mike Ashley.
It was the 2024/25 season where Howe delivered the one thing that Newcastle fans had been craving for years, a major trophy. The North East outfit defeated Liverpool 2-1 in the EFL Cup final to clinch their first major honour in 70 years, courtesy of goals from Dan Burn and Alexander Isak.
Less than a year after their EFL Cup triumph, Howe has come under scrutiny after an underwhelming start to the 2025/26 Premier League term, with Newcastle seemingly falling behind the pack in the top flight and underperforming Tyne-Wear rivals Sunderland.
There's no denying that Howe has notably elevated the club in recent years, but there are suggestions that he's taken Newcastle as far as he possibly can and 2026 could be the year that his tenure at St James' Park comes to an end.
