Newcastle United confirmed Eddie Howe will step down the club. The German coach is lined up for the job. Matthias Jaissle is the name being pushed.
He is forty-one years of age. He coaches Saudi side Al-Ahli today.
The three outlets, the paper of record, the fan blog and the goal-scoring outlet all report on the switch. The Independent adds Jaissle flies under the radar and that would mean his debut Premier League posting. Reports from July 30, 2026 say the club prefers him. The change is near.
