He is expected to replace Bruce, who left Newcastle just 13 days after the Saudi Arabia-backed £305m takeover of the club was completed. Howe is familiar with Newcastle players Callum Wilson, Ryan Fraser and Ritchie from his time at Bournemouth, having led the club from League One to the Premier League, where they stayed for five seasons. We will have to see what the future holds but hopefully I will still be here." "I was assured from minute one that the owners wanted me as part of any management team that comes in. We have had a bad start, every point matters. "I think they will see this performance and realise they inherit a healthy football club. "I've not spoken to them," he told BBC Sport when asked about Howe and Tindall being at the Amex. Graeme Jones, who has been in caretaker charge of Newcastle since Bruce's departure, is hopeful of remaining a part of the setup at the club once Howe is in place. Newcastle approached Villarreal manager Unai Emery to succeed Bruce, but he turned them down. The Magpies have been without a manager since Steve Bruce left by mutual consent two weeks ago. I have all the praise in the world for him." "What he did at Bournemouth was nothing short of a miracle. "We have a young, hungry group here and I am sure he can bring out the best in them if he is appointed. "I am not sure if it is confirmed yet or what is happening but for me my time with him was fantastic, I loved every minute," he said. He also worked with Howe at Burnley and ended last season on the coaching staff at Sheffield United.Īfter Saturday's draw at the Seagulls, Newcastle wing-back Matt Ritchie, who played under Howe at Bournemouth, said he would be a great appointment.

A mass exodus that summer saw Monaco tail off, resulting in Jardim losing his job in October 2018 and although he was reappointed again a few months later, he was unable to match the success of his first spell in charge. Leonardo Jardim’s reputation peaked when he led an exciting Monaco side, spearheaded by a teenage Kylian Mbappe, to a shock Ligue 1 title and Champions League semi-final during the 2016-17 season. The Hoops said he would not be taking the job due to “reasons outside both his and Celtic’s control”. The 43-year-old spent more than a decade on the south coast and was later in the frame for the Celtic post before it was filled by Ange Postecoglou. Howe left Bournemouth by mutual consent in August 2020 following the Cherries’ relegation from the Premier League. The ex-Borussia Monchengladbach and Nice manager has been out of work since he was sacked by Dortmund in 2020, and though he was close to joining Crystal Palace in the summer, the Swiss backed out of the move with a late U-turn and is now fancied to head to the north east.

Only Sheffield United, West Brom, Crystal Palace and Southampton conceded more goals. Last season, a 12th-placed finish looked respectable on paper, but they were 14 points off the top half. I find the whole thing very, very disappointing, as anybody would, I suppose.” Those fans have now got their wish with the new owners dispensing of the 60-year-old’s services.
