Eddie Howe is sticking with the Magpies! 🖤🤍 Despite swirling rumors linking him to the England manager position, the Newcastle United boss has confirmed he's happy where he is.
After England parted ways with Gareth Southgate following their runner-up finish at Euro 2024 in Germany, the Football Association (FA) is on the hunt for a new head coach. They even posted a public job ad on their official website, saying they've \"already identified a number of candidates,\" with applications closing on August 2.
Fans speculated that Howe might be one of those candidates, given his impressive track record since taking over Newcastle in November 2021. Under his guidance, the club has secured 60 wins, 30 draws, and only 35 losses out of 125 games! Talk about a comeback story! ⚽️🔥
But Howe is laser-focused on Newcastle's journey. \"Really, there has been no thought in my mind on anything else and I have been very committed to the job here,\" he told BBC Radio. \"As long as I am happy and feel supported and feel free to do the work that I love to do at Newcastle, I'll be very happy – and I am very happy.\"
Since the club's acquisition by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund in October 2021, Newcastle has been the team to watch! While they haven't splashed out on mega signings, they've been smartly building a solid squad that's climbing the Premier League ranks. 🚀
So, Magpies fans, rest easy! Eddie Howe isn't going anywhere, and Newcastle United's future looks brighter than ever. 🏆✨
