Ex-Newcastle coach, Eddie Howe
Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe is set to leave the club with immediate effect, according to reports from BBC Sport on Thursday.
The decision follows discussions between Howe and the club’s hierarchy, with sources indicating that the 48-year-old had been considering his future at St James’ Park in recent weeks.
Howe came under pressure last season after Newcastle endured a difficult Premier League campaign, finishing 12th after losing 17 of their 38 league matches.
His final game in charge was a disappointing 4-1 defeat to Bristol City in a pre-season friendly on Wednesday.
