Newcastle United confirmed Eddie Howe is leaving the club. The Austrian-German coach is set to take the job. Matthias Jaissle is the leading candidate.
He comes in at 41 years old. He coaches Saudi side Al-Ahli today.
The three outlets, the paper of record, the fan blog and the goal-scoring outlet all flag the switch. The Independent flags Jaissle has a low profile and this would be his debut Premier League job. Reports from late July 2026 say the club favors him. The switch is imminent.
