Paul Mitchell confirmed his departure as Sporting Director of Newcastle United, effective at the end of June 2025. He expressed gratitude towards the club, highlighting his positive experiences and relationships developed during his tenure. Driven by a desire for timing reflecting both personal readiness and the club's needs, Mitchell emphasized confidence in the ongoing leadership and future of Newcastle after a successful season, which included winning the Carabao Cup and securing Champions League qualification.
I'd like to thank everyone at Newcastle United for their support over the last year, including Eddie Howe, Becky Langley, the players, staff, owners and fans.
I'm leaving at a time that is right for me and the club, particularly with Darren Eales - someone who I have worked so closely with in my career - moving on soon.
The club is in great hands on and off the pitch, and is in a fantastic position to continue building.
I'd like to wish everyone connected with Newcastle United a bright and successful future.
