Next Newcastle manager: Five candidates to replace Eddie Howe
"Andoni Iraola oversaw a 12th-place finish in his first season before guiding Bournemouth to ninth position in the 2024-25 campaign, representing the club's joint best-ever finish in their top-flight history. But his job was made more difficult following a summer transfer window in which three of their first-choice defenders left to join Champions League clubs."
"Marco Silva would appear tailor-made for St James' Park. He was chewed up by Everton in the late 2010s, but even Carlo Ancelotti only got them to 10th. Silva's Fulham contract expires at the end of this season."
"Oliver Glasner may be burning his bridges at Crystal Palace, but winning the FA Cup with the South Londoners is an achievement to behold. The Austrian also won the Europa League with Eintracht Frankfurt and Newcastle would feel like the right size club for his talents and expertise."
Newcastle United faces a critical decision regarding Eddie Howe's future after a 3-2 home defeat to Everton leaves the club positioned between fifth place and the relegation zone. The club has identified five realistic replacement options. Andoni Iraola has impressed at Bournemouth, achieving their joint best top-flight finish despite losing key defenders and Antoine Semenyo. His contract expires this summer, and he attracts interest from Manchester City and other top clubs. Marco Silva at Fulham offers attractive football and strong personality suited to Newcastle. Oliver Glasner won the FA Cup with Crystal Palace and the Europa League with Frankfurt, with his contract expiring in June. Roberto De Zerbi represents another candidate under consideration for the managerial position.
