Newcastle are considering sacking manager Howe.

Eddie Howe's future as manager at Newcastle United is becoming a big question mark following a disappointing 2025/26 season.

Manager Eddie Howe is at risk of being sacked at the end of the season.

CEO David Hopkinson revealed he had a lengthy private conversation with manager Howe after the 2-1 defeat to Sunderland on March 22nd. The result angered fans and raised doubts about the club's direction since being taken over by Saudi Arabian owners.

"It wasn't just three points lost. That defeat was truly hurtful and forced us to take things seriously," Hopkinson emphasized.

Newcastle's management is in no hurry to make a decision. Howe will still lead the team for the remainder of the season, with the focus on the final seven rounds. His future will be discussed at the end of the season, when the club has a more comprehensive view of its performance.

Newcastle are currently 12th in the Premier League and risk missing out on European competition next season. According to the English media, it is highly likely that manager Howe will be forced to leave his position if the situation does not improve.

In addition, Newcastle is also preparing for a turbulent transfer window. After parting ways with Alexander Isak, the club is gradually shifting towards a model of buying and selling players instead of just spending heavily as before.

This means Sandro Tonali could be sold if a suitable offer is received, especially if Newcastle fail to qualify for the Champions League. "We will act in a disciplined, proactive manner and optimize every opportunity in the market," the CEO said.

Financially, Newcastle recorded revenue of £335.3 million in the financial year ending June 2025, with after-tax profit reaching £34.7 million. However, the club is still considered to be not yet on par with the Premier League's big clubs.
