It is a great honour to become head coach of a club with the stature and history of Newcastle United. It is a very proud day for me and my family.
This is a wonderful opportunity, but there is a lot of work ahead of us and I am eager to get onto the training ground to start working with the players.
I would like to thank the club’s owners for this opportunity and thank the club’s supporters for the incredible welcome they have already given me. I am very excited to begin our journey together and.
The decision to sack Bruce was taken by the new owners of the club in a bid to take the Magpies to the next level. He was sacked after the game against Tottenham, which was his 1000th game as a manager.
Howe has been out of the job since August 2020 following the Cherries’ relegation from the Premier League. It will be a simple relationship between Howe and some players, which include Callum Wilson, Ryan Fraser, and Matt Ritchie, having coached them for five seasons during his time at Bournemouth.
They are yet to record a win in 11 Premier League games this season and they currently occupy the 19th position behind Norwich City.
