"Emery has impressed at Villa and has also previously enjoyed success at the likes of Sevilla and Villarreal, so it could be that he'd prove an upgrade on Howe. Just a few months ago it would have been almost unthinkable that Howe could lose his job after guiding Newcastle to a trophy last season with victory in the Carabao Cup final. Still, the Magpies' form this season has been pretty poor, and it makes sense that there's now growing uncertainty over the manager's position."
"A report from the Chronicle suggests NUFC could replace Howe this summer, but moving quickly for someone like Emery could be key. Manager comparison Wins Draws Losses Win % Howe (Newcastle) 105 46 62 49.30 Emery (Villa) 99 30 47 56.25 There's also mention of former Tottenham and Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino being on their radar, so that could be another interesting saga to keep an eye on."
"Newcastle fans will no doubt be hoping Howe can turn things around after mostly doing such an impressive job since his time at St James' Park. Still, football is a results business and there can be no room for sentiment if the 48-year-old no longer looks like the best man for the job. Emery's CV perhaps suggests he could take Newcastle even further, but one imagines Villa will also do whatever they can to keep hold of the Spanish tactician."
Newcastle United could replace Eddie Howe this summer, with Unai Emery linked as a potential successor. Emery has impressed at Aston Villa and previously achieved success at Sevilla and Villarreal, suggesting he might be an upgrade. Howe guided Newcastle to the Carabao Cup last season, but the club has struggled this season, increasing uncertainty over his position. Reports indicate Newcastle may move quickly and have also considered Mauricio Pochettino. Fans hope Howe can improve results, while Aston Villa may attempt to retain Emery if approached.
