Eddie Howe leaves Newcastle after admitting he 'lost control'

Eddie Howe has left Newcastle United, The Guardian reported on 30 July 2026. Appointed in November 2021, he ended the club's 70-year domestic trophy drought with the 2025 Carabao Cup. A chaotic follow-up season — 12th in the Premier League, an 8-3 Champions League exit to Barcelona — ended with Howe conceding he had "lost control." Austrian coach Matthias Jaissle is linked with the vacancy.
