Manchester United are considering launching another raid on Newcastle United, with 46-year-old English manager Eddie Howe emerging as a target.
According to a report by Football Insider, Eddie Howe is the subject of interest from Manchester United. The Red Devils are keeping their options open if Erik ten Hag cannot turn things around at Old Trafford in the coming months. The 46-year-old has had a fall-out with Newcastle United sporting director Paul Mitchell, leaving his long-term future at St. James’ Park in doubt.
Eddie Howe and his journey so far
Eddie Howe has been one of the most highly-rated managers in the Premier League for a long time. A native of Amersham, the Englishman was a centre-back as a footballer and spent most of his playing days with Bournemouth, with his career going under the radar.
The 46-year-old entered the managerial world in 2008, joining Bournemouth as the head coach and spending three years at the Vitality Stadium. After a short spell with Burnley, Howe returned to Bournemouth, with this spell bringing him into the spotlight due to his team’s heroics in the Premier League.
Howe left Bournemouth in 2020 before taking his next job at Newcastle United in 2021. The English tactician has made his mark at St. James’ Park, taking the club to the UEFA Champions League and the EFL Cup final. However, tensions are rising within the Newcastle United camp after Howe’s bust-up with sporting director, Paul Mitchell.
A separation on the horizon?
Newcastle United endured a dreadful summer transfer window, which has contributed to the fall-out between Eddie Howe and Mitchell. However, while recent reports have claimed that Newcastle United will likely sack Mitchell before Howe, the situation has captured the attention of Manchester United.
Manchester United have already raided Newcastle United for Dan Ashworth, with Howe the latest to emerge as a target. With Erik ten Hag under pressure to turn things around and prove his credentials, the Red Devils are identifying potential replacements. So, several candidates, including Simone Inzaghi, have emerged on Manchester United’s radar.
However, Howe is also a viable target, considering his experience in the Premier League. The 46-year-old is a highly-rated young manager and will bring fresh ideas to the table at Old Trafford. However, a deal will not see the light of day unless Erik ten Hag finds himself on sticky grounds.
