Newcastle United announced Eddie Howe is leaving the club. The German coach is expected to take the job. Matthias Jaissle is the leading candidate.
He stands at 41 years of age. He is in charge of Saudi side Al-Ahli right now.
The national outlets, fan sites and the goal outlet all confirm the switch. The Independent notes Jaissle is a relative unknown and that would mean his first Premier League posting. Reports from the end of July 2026 say the club is pushing for him. The swap is imminent.
