Newcastle United confirmed Eddie Howe will step down the club. The German coach is set to take the job. Matthias Jaissle is the name being pushed.
He stands at 41 years old. He coaches Saudi side Al-Ahli today.
The national outlets, fan sites and the goal outlet all flag the switch. The Independent flags Jaissle has a low profile and that would mean his maiden Premier League post. Reports from July 30, 2026 say the club wants him. The switch is close.
