This season, Newcastle United finds itself in an unusual situation. The disappointment of finishing just outside the Champions League places and narrowly missing out on the Carabao Cup and European football feels like a distant memory.
Eddie Howe was a brilliant choice for Newcastle United during the PIF era. While it may appear absurd to suggest he is under any kind of pressure, the nature of modern football has seen speculation about new managerial moves during a difficult period for Howe’s team in recent weeks.
Jose Mourinho’s potential arrival is gaining attention, with links to the club reported by Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport and endorsement from figures such as Richard Keys.
According to The Athletic, despite his expressed desire to remain at AS Roma, the 60-year-old Jose Mourinho has not been offered new terms, and his current contract expires in six months. There are “fears” that Newcastle or even former club Chelsea will pursue him, but the Italian club’s owners have yet to take action.
Although Jose Mourinho has previously expressed admiration for the club due to his connection with Sir Bobby Robson, a potential move to Newcastle would be highly controversial due to his recent Premier League failures.
